I am a science teacher that tries to live more sustainably - I try my best to reduce waste, to reduce carbon emissions in transportation, promote sustainable food production and raise awareness of the importance of biodiversity.

I focus on green transportation - I sold my car and do all my daily business on my bike (and occasionally public transportation).

I am also a scout and I will prepare my next challenge with my scout unit - "the library of things".

As a Pact Ambassador, I am dedicated to advancing climate action with a strong emphasis on education and inclusivity. With a background in sustainability and agriculture, I am focusing on my mission to raise awareness and cultivate a collective commitment to climate action among diverse audiences, particularly in educational institutions. My initiatives encompass developing educational resources, delivering impactful presentations, and organising empowering workshops, with a specific focus on inspiring youth, empowering girls, and engaging citizens in countering climate misinformation, ultimately encouraging climate-neutral practices. I am enthusiastic about leveraging my roles as a sustainability researcher and citizen scientist, utilising social media and conference platforms to drive practical solutions for a sustainable future. Together, our collective efforts can truly make a significant impact in the battle against climate change.

As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I will raise awareness on the impacts of climate change and how to stop the perpetuattion of structural inequalities, such as those between women and men. I will promote the involvement of women in decision-making, so we can help drive the adoption of climate change policies and strengthen the efforts by ensuring they benefit the needs of women and the communities that they are members of.

Responsibilities

From medical doctor to social media intern to Media Director to health/queer activist and aspiring author, my journey has been far from a traditional one, but I have certainly kept myself busy over the past 30 years. I am passionate about plant based eating, environmental conservation, unpacking Malta's history through a decolonising lens, queer activism and youth work, and writing.

Through my work as Climate Pact Ambassador, I aim to make climate action understandable, accessible and attainable, regardless of resource availability, knowledge or community space. Starting local and expanding beyond the borders of my tiny homeland of Malta, I hope to use my voice and actions to inspire others to do the same. From social media efforts, to panel discussions, to collaborative pieces, art spaces, community events, and discussions with local governance, I want to show that anyone can take the first step towards embracing the power of environmental and climate action.

I am a biologist, epidemiologist, and climate activist. I identify as an eco-feminist and as a member of the board of the Union of Women Alternative and Response, I actively contribute to raising awareness of the challenges that climate change poses to gender equality and women’s rights. As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I intend to develop a program in the northern region of Portugal, aimed at promoting climate literacy, particularly focused on rural women in the interior of Portugal. Through conferences, workshops, debates, film screenings, and hands-on activities centered around climate action, good practices for a more sustainable way of life and the protection of local biodiversity, I intend to bridge the knowledge gap on climate change, especially for those living outside major urban centers who have limited access to such training, in particular, rural women. I am committed to making a meaningful and lasting impact on the climate initiatives in our local communities.

I am the founder of the non-profit clothing exchange and donation platform and conscious women's community "Giver Tag". Nowadays, the ever-increasing popularity of "clothing swapping" and reuse is one of the best ways to combat the rampant consumerism that fast fashion imposes on us. The clothing and footwear industry accounts significant greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the textile industry is responsible for large amounts of microplastics entering water bodies. The damage and impact of climate change are immeasurable, but even big changes require small steps, which I invite the women of my country to take together. Will you join too?

My challenge as ambassador of the European Climate Pact is to raise awareness of the involvement and action of cities in favor of the ecological transition and to disseminate good practices in order to help other European cities in their actions.

Convinced that collective intelligence will make it possible to meet environmental challenges, my actions will be to put forward policies, initiatives and projects that will guarantee a sustainable future.
