Carmen Fleitas’ Global Career beyond Vision Boards: From Paraguay to Thailand, and in between

Carmen Fleitas is an Advocacy and Communications Expert working at the United Nations, with over eight years of international experience spanning Latin America and Asia. She has worked in international organisations and non-profits, focusing on sustainable development.

In this episode of 'Lucky to Be Here', Carmen shares her journey of navigating career transitions across countries, starting in Paraguay where she was born and raised, and moving through Taiwan, Panama, United Kingdom, and now in Thailand. From her initial aspirations of becoming a diplomat to her eventual shift towards human rights and communications, Carmen discusses the importance of trusting oneself, continuous learning, and building a supportive network to navigate pivots within pivots. She reflects on her experiences living in different cultures, the challenges of reverse culture shock, and the significance of community in overcoming obstacles. Carmen also provides valuable insights for those aspiring to work in international development, particularly within the UN system, emphasizing the need for language skills and grassroots experience.
