Mød vores ambassadører

I'm planning to use my passion and knowledge of sustainability to engage and inspire others; to use my network to connect and empower others for sustainability and to use my position to drive cultural change and develop technical solutions.

In Liepāja city I have worked with environmental and climate issues already for years. Liepāja city has joined the Covenant of Mayors in 2012 and I am acting as the Committee of Regions' Covenant of Mayors Ambassador. The first thing we did to fight climate change was to improve the heat supply system. We are working for the residents to have convenient public transport and safe movement with bicycles. As the Ambassador I would like to reach out more to local inhabitants schools on the topics of environment.

In my role as a Climate Change Ambassador, I bring a distinctive blend of expertise and fervour to the cause, which complements my background as a Ph.D. candidate specialising in Energy and Sustainability. My intended initiatives center on closing the divide between state-of-the-art research and practical, implementable solutions. I intend to collaborate with academic institutions, industry influencers, and policymakers to communicate the most recent discoveries in climate science and sustainable energy technologies. Through partnerships, workshops, and advocacy for policy reform, I strive to stimulate inventive approaches that effectively address the challenges posed by climate change. Whether it involves nurturing cross-disciplinary discussions, advancing the adoption of renewable energy sources, or championing policies grounded in evidence, my goal is to serve as a catalyst for transformative change and an exemplar of well-informed leadership in the field of climate action.

When I was 6 years old the snow was so big in Romania that it can cover half of my body after a night of heavy snowing. After 22 years in Romania is barely snowing in the winter in the same region that 22 years ago use to cover half my height. I love the nature the lakes, rivers, plants, animals, humans. Since I was young I loved planting trees and I always plant them on every patch of land that I own. I know Romania and I know the solutions to fix it's climate pollution.

I connect society, organisations, companies, experts and politicians for collaborative climate action with offline and online events. On my social media profiles I inspire, educate and engage with my followers for action.

As a former ERASMUS student in Paris and Vienna, it is my goal to educate about European achievements and encourage people to vote for climate action during the EU elections 2024.

My mission is to empower people for united action, becauseCOLLABORATION IS KEY. Together we are the solution! 

Stefano Armenia (PhD, MBA) is a research fellow in Business Organization at Link Campus University (Rome, Italy) and president of the Italian Chapter of the System Dynamics Society. He applies Systems Thinking and System Dynamics modeling and simulation to the management of policies and strategies in complex organizations, by evaluating and anticipating their social impacts, in the field of sustainable development (food, circular economy, water, transport, finance) and digital transformation.

I think education is the best way to grow citizens sensible to climate change so I will start by nominate a student responsible for his classroom. Then the nominated students will elect a team who will spread this model to other schools in the city. We will organize meetings twice a year to know the state of art and make a brainstorming to promote activities and actions that can help our area also in the summer when lessons are over.

I possess a profound commitment to catalysing transformative change and forging harmonious collaboration among diverse stakeholders. My overarching mission is to unite communities, organisations, and individuals in a collective endeavour to raise awareness and drive purposeful action on pressing global challenges. My strategic plan encompasses a multifaceted approach, including orchestrating compelling awareness campaigns that resonate widely, fervently advocating for sustainable practices that safeguard our planet's future. I will also facilitate thought-provoking dialogues on paramount issues such as climate change, social justice, and global health. Through these well-coordinated initiatives, I envision being a driving force in inspiring a global community to rally around a vision of a world characterised by profound equity, sustainability, and interconnectedness. In this vision, the transcendent power of collaboration effortlessly traverses borders and barriers.

As a Climate Ambassador, I will promote the European Green Deal goals locally, regionally and internationally working together with national, EU and global governments and facilitate networks’ exchanges of best practices and successes. My aim is to increase awareness on climate related issues together with disaster resilience, to help governments take the lead of relevant change process, and improve the engagement of stakeholders and social groups in decision-makings regarding disaster and climate-proof policies and actions. I am committed of sharing the relevant results and experience gained in more than 20 years of work in the field so to contribute to matching the European goals.

I am a nature lover and a passionate climate advocate. An environmental engineer by training, I currently work as a climate policy consultant. In my free time, I am a  climate and youth advocate. I have represented youth voices for climate internationally and nationally in various summits and meetings, being Youth4Climate delegate in NY, head of the Italian delegation at the 2022 G7 youth summit, and observer at the climate negotiations since COP26. I have co-led the "Youth4SDGs" initiative with the Italian Climate Network NGO. Over the last year, I have trained 200+ youth on climate and energy, recently also as IRENA-Italy IACT peer-educator. I am from Italy, but I have lived also in Sweden, Belgium and the USA.

My personal favourite quote is " Let's make sure we all play a role in drafting our future".

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 an Ambassador, I will continue to make my contribution in the areas in which I work as a freelance researcher, organizer and co-author of advertising, to raise awareness among public and private operators, public opinion and individual citizens on the effects of climate change. I am particularly paying attention to the current trends and those expected for the future on the development of synergies for the sustainability of the WEF nexus (Water, Energy, Food).

As an EU Climate Pact Ambassador, I aim to create awareness on Sustainability by providing and sharing information and practices. Sustainability has always been my passion and lifestyle, I'm solution-driven, and I would like to use my overall expertise to make a better world.

As an Ambassador, I plan to educate, communicate, raise awareness through client engagement, on and offline events and thematic discussions, research, online campaigns, data, expertise and publications related to climate change.  Matching and twinning European schools, industry and civil society with African institutions to create resources that educate us on our interconnected world where our actions have implications locally, nationally and internationally. 

My name is Meda and I will be organising monthly Climate Cafe events in Kaunas. My aim is to establish a safe and welcoming environment where individuals can convene, engage in discourse about climate-related concerns, exchange innovative ideas, and acquire comprehensive insights into the Climate Pact and what it aims to achieve.

My activities focus on supporting local governments and non-governmental organizations through substantive training and workshops, environmental education, and financing activities aimed at preventing climate change and minimizing its negative effects. I plan to advocate against climate change at a local level, I will encourage Local Municipalities to participate ate in the 'Green Cities' program. At International level, I will organize plantation drives at the Institutional level.

I am a climate pact ambassador who is passionate about taking action for the climate and the environment. I plan to engage and educate the public through various activities, such as:
- Developing a videonewsletter series about SDG13 and sharing the latest climate research with the public 
- Highlighting online courses on Climate Action that can provide people with the knowledge and skills they need to take action
- Organising webinars with various stakeholders to foster dialogue and collaboration on how to achieve the goals of the Climate Pact
- Making use of my LinkedIn network to spread the word about the climate pact and its objectives and encourage people to join the community
- Designing animation video that explains the climate pact goals in a simple and inspiring way
- Collaborating with my fellow Climate Pact feambassadors to design collective actions that can create a bigger impact in their communities.

My motivation is the planet. We have to save it, and younger generations are very important in order to reach that goal. I will contact schools, mayors and important people that can help us. My most important job is to raise awareness, and I will give 100% of my dedication by organising climate days at schools, creating days for making my hometown greener and much more!

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. I will actively build networks of experts, public stake holders and civil society representatives, so that the gender gaps can be reduced and the access to resources, education and information can be assured for women working in rural areas across Romania and Europe.
