I'm an molecular anthropologist  and a math and science teacher. I have also been an animal and enviroment activist for 25 years. I think that the key to reach a zero waste, full sustainable society is to grow empathic and well conscious new generations. In order to achieve this, I strongly believe that taking action and giving the opportunity to make field experience is the key to awake young minds.

As an environmental expert that focuses on nature restoration, biodiversity in grasslands and sustainable agriculture, my call to take action against climate change is linked to nature directly and also green infrastructure. I am dedicated to motivate people, especially youngsters, to connect more to nature to gain a deep understanding of natural systems and their importance to sustain our everyday lives. I want to help people see that we need to cooperate and integrate our lifestyles within the environment and climate, not tear it down. 

As a nutritionist and expert on edible wild plants I have always focussed on the impact of our actions on health (our own and that of the environment). Thus, I have learned how simple it is to act sustainably without any loss in quality of life. I want to share this insight and be a guide to an easy way to a happy healthy life.

In the context of a serious and imminent environmental crisis, we want to address the prospect of the changes that the climate crisis will impose on us, in the historial historical and artistic analysis of exhibitions, concerts and especially in conferences and meetings with local administrations and schools. In particular, we believe it is very useful to support extra-urban and mountain life models of which Italy is still rich, because they could offer concrete ideas and suggestions.

I am a finance expert, activist and writer with a focus on sustainability. I am fighting to change capital market boundaries for more sustainable investing rather than short-term focused profits. Whether in a corporate context, on social media or in scientific discussions, I try to raise awareness and motivation for the fight to save our planet and therefore, our future. All of us are in this fight together, so I am sure we can only win if we are united. That is why I want to help connect people. 

“Believe in the power of your own voice" - Al Gore. Our voice is a really powerful weapon, we need to act!

Raising awareness about the climate change is the first step to make people act. Concepts like climate change, sustainable consumption, zero pollution, or sustainable transport are hard to understand for many people, having a better explanation would help the whole movement. As an economics student, I am really interested in the way that this matter affects economy. We can do it!

As an appointed Pact Ambassador, I am dedicated to fostering climate awareness and action through creative, engaging initiatives. My approach combines grassroots community engagement, education, and collaboration. I co-founded the Climate Streamers Foundation, where we have created a conversation-stimulating card game and organised workshops. Through these activities, I aim to bridge the gap between the informed and less active, ensuring a broader audience becomes climate-conscious and proactive. My commitment involves empowering communities and extending our reach through collaborations with like-minded organisations, all in the pursuit of a sustainable future.

As Mayor of San Lawrenz in the island of Gozo, I have been leading my community during its journey to become a more sustainable municipality for almost three decades. I work together with residents, local businesses and voluntary organisations as part of my mission to educate the community to be more sustainable and engage in climate action initiatives. As part of my ongoing work, I strive to get to know each and every person within the community and communicate, listen and understand to orient our vision towards the needs of the residents. My planned activities as a Climate Pact Ambassador shall continue to revolve around community engagement and reaching out towards all sectors of society, keeping in mind the most vulnerable, to make sure that the proposed initiatives are of benefit to the whole community. During the next year I shall further promote green transport, waste management, sustainable food and energy efficiency as key areas to achieve climate neutrality.

As Policy Officer for the NGO QUEST (Quality Education in Europe for Social Sustainable Transformation), I advocate for a fairer, smarter and more sustainable education system, promoting children and youth’s well-being and inclusion as positive agents of change. More precisely, I promote innovative pedagogies at the European level, fostering children and youth’s initiative, physical and emotional well-being, and the skills needed in a fast-changing world. Within the European Climate Pact, with QUEST, we will do so through peer-learning exchanges and activities, linking education in nature and democratic education practices with climate education. 

I am the artistic director for a theater company - La Transplanisphère -, which carries out European projects, both artistic and citizen. These projects give rise to the creation of professional creations, but also to workshops combining amateurs and professionals.

My ambition is to create spaces where citizens - professional artists, teachers, “experts”, amateurs of all ages and young people in particular - will not only meet, but also learn and create together to question our times.

With a consortium of partners from six european  countries, we launched LeCake project dedicated to supporting our transition towards sustainable projects for the cultural sector. LeCake includes workshops with local communities to share the knowledge we gathered and provoke co designed, creative proposals.

I want to contribute to a form of expression of the creativity of individuals in society: an expression of collective intelligence in action adressing concretely the European Green deal at local level. 

Climate change is arguably the most important global threat to humanity, and the impact of extreme weather events will be more pronounced and more serious than any global disaster we have experienced in recent history. I am promoting nature-based solutions as a key mechanism to help tourism companies deal with the effects of climate change and to encourage them to reduce their carbon footprint where possible.

My life goal is to bring individual, business and planetary health to the heart of the people. At age 16, I began engagement with the energy transition, focused on reducing health damage through cleaner air and reduced use of harmful chemicals. I feel I have a greater impact with groups, for example through leadership training how to cope with workers with alcohol problems. For 10 years I taught post-graduate architects in "Solar architecture" in "healthy buliding". I also wrote a lot of expert articles, mainly in medical journal for doctors and patients but also in Austrian newspapers. I also participated in many interviews related to car and lorry emmissions and noise, but also related to climate change.

Additionally, my house, an old (1908) tenement with 10 flats, was transformed over 25 years inoto an ecological and social "Haus of Commons", with shared garden, workshop, kitchen and sporting equipment and cars (1 hybrid, 1 EV). I am a cyclist and want to influence others through my health-focused engagement.

As a Pact Ambassador, I bring a wealth of experience as a strategic planner in Riga's municipality, focusing on sustainability, biodiversity, and climate change. I am passionate about expanding the reach of sustainability initiatives, bridging gaps in the community, and cultivating a diverse ecosystem of supporters. My strategy includes writing articles on topics like urban gardening and Riga's green transition, while also leveraging social media to amplify these discussions. Additionally, I plan to engage youth through a themed event featuring a sustainability quiz. With my background in innovative projects, a master's degree, and relevant internships, I am well-equipped to inspire and foster a more interconnected, sustainable world.

Using creative forms of soft skills, workshops, urban sensory hikes, teambuilding, educations, performances, multidisciplinary co-creation, I call people to reconnect with nature. Building sustainability and cohesive leadership can be fun, engaging, transformative and alive.

I truly believe that everything starts from our personal connection with nature. Do we (humans) feel part of it or separate? I am nature. We are nature.

Shirley is passionate about climate change, community and being the change. She supports others in finding their voice by developing a platform and toolkit to develop climate action now. Working between charities toastmasters international, climate reality project and cork environmental forum to strengthen the message and gather the tribe.

I am María, oceanographer and environmentalist with a wide professional experience related to the environment, marine environment, climate change and sustainable blue economy. I was born in Sanlúcar de Barrameda (Cádiz, Spain), at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River in front of the Doñana National Park. Perhaps, for this reason, I have always felt a great fascination for the marine environment and for nature.

As a Climate Ambassador, I will promote the objectives of European Green Pact at local, regional, and national level, collaborating at national, European, and international level. In doing so, leading by example, inspiring, and connecting with others will be essential. Specifically, as an ambassador I will be responsible for:

• Reporting with scientific and technical data on the climate and biodiversity situation in the media
• Organising and participating in talks and events
• Participating in projects, technical and/or scientific papers and disseminating them
• Carrying out volunteer actions and involving others, especially at the local level (community garden, coastal bird protection campaign, collection of plastics on beaches, etc.).                    

I am Abel Gambini, a scientific populariser, and vice president of EMS-Energy and Sustainable Mobility, an association that is responsible for raising awareness around issues including renewable energy and sustainable mobility in Italy. In recent years I have traveled around Italy talking about electric mobility, renewable energy, and other Greentech. Since 2019 I have been known in Italy for my role in raising awareness about electric mobility. Since April 2023 I have had the honor of coordinating the guide about Energies for the Nudge for Climate for Italy.

Committed in Luxembourg to the fight against climate change, it is important that this fight be carried out at the level of the European Union. It is important to publicise the activities and plans of the European Union to ensure that 27 countries are stronger and set an example for the rest of the world.

During the last years, I have supported and collaborated in different initiatives on Climate Change. Those experiences are my first value, and I have a solid network of contacts, with organizations and people.

I will continue with my tasks as a professor at the university with classes and projects. Also, I will share my knowledge with other educational levels.

I firmly believe that young people are the greatest strength we have. My mission is to motivate them, open their minds and empower them as changemakers.
