Seznamte se s našimi vyslanci

I combine experiential learning, gamification, and game-based learning to drive social and environmental impact. I believe in a world of equal rights and opportunities, where active global citizens embrace diversity with empathy and are ready to build an innovative, inclusive and sustainable future today. I am an experienced facilitator, consultant, designer and speaker, committed to making a difference through playful learning, with tools and methods from my project "Climate for All" and more!

I have grown in north-west Czechia, the region of open-cast brown coal mining and burning. I have observed the local impacts, landscape changes, pollution and health problems. I have dedicated my entire professional life to research and education in environmental sciences. My mission is to present data, facts and context in understandable but not oversimplified way.

I am representing my grassroot-organisation Scientists for Future Germany, the "voice of science" within the German climate movement. We contribute to political discussions and build bridges to facilitate dialogue and insight. My own research activities in transforming Eastern European Countries showed me that common problems need common action and understanding. As Ambassdor, I add the voice of the EU to reach-out activities of my organisation - and the voice of my organisation to the EU.

Professionaly I work in a climate related science institute and I have been leading national long term climate strategy. But when it comes to talking to my friends, outside my work bubble, I see people still dont have enough knowledge about climate change, about which measures to take, what can help the climate or the environment. And also since a huge transition needs to be made in the upcoming years to reach climate neutrality, we really need to gather all the people that we can get to help advocate.

I was raised in Rijeka, Croatia, where I also obtained my MBA in Energy Sector Economics. I began my postgraduate doctoral studies in Economics and Business economics in 2019 with a PhD thesis closely linked to sustainable development. I frequently attended seminars and workshops at the University of Rijeka's Science and Technology Park (STEP-RI) during my doctorate. I am a proud member of the Society for Designing Sustainable Development (DOOR) in Zagreb, Member of the Board of Directors of French Alliance in Rijeka, and a proud member of the Network for the Promotion of Women in the Energy Transition (X-Energy) today. I am fluent in English, German, French, Italian, and Russian. My research areas are energy efficiency and sustainable tourism development. As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I will continue to be the best of my abilities to promote the sustainable development goals.

My overarching goal is to promote city-level action and regional and global peer-to-peer learning and engagement while building the potential for cities and regions to lobby their national governments and regional institutions on specific areas of the sustainable development and green recovery. We need to build regional coalitions that drive towards the key real economy outcomes necessary in order to hold on global temperature warming at no more than 1.5°C level.

Climate Change is one of the biggest challenges of our times. 

My mission as an Ambassador is to engage citizens and communities in action for our climate and environment. 

I have a keen interest in safeguarding clean air for all since air pollution affects dramatically climate change and remains the biggest environmental health risk in Europe. 

I will focus on four strategic pillars: #Participate #Act #Change #Think 

#EUGreenDeal  #EUClimatePact

B.Sc., MSPH

I am a passionate advocate for the environment with a track record of making real change. Over the past three years, I have championed initiatives like ProjectECO, a contest that saw remarkable results in realising sustainable projects. At BGZeroWaste, I have facilitated numerous workshops promoting sustainability and zero-waste lifestyles. Through GreenUP, I have spearheaded initiatives, from bootcamps to accelerator programs, all aimed at nurturing green entrepreneurship among the youth.

As an Ambassador, my primary focus will be on circular economy, sustainable startups, and green education. I am committed to raising awareness, helping eco-conscious entrepreneurs, and creating a platform where innovative green ideas can flourish.

I am an ecologist by heart.Тeaching children about sustainability, meaningful campaigns and leaving something behind for the benefit of society have been my guiding values ​​in recent years. Creating an urban gardening center, where in addition to growing vegetables, we create a community of like-minded people and educate children with a love for nature is the added value. I plan to continue to develop these essential things and and provide a platform for expression as an Ambassador.

I am an Attorney at Law specializing on renewable energy sources, environmental law, and climate policy. I identify as an advocate for renewable energy sources, climate resilience and just transition that leaves no one behind. Given my academic and professional background in energy law, energy diplomacy, environmental law, and climate change policy, as a Pact Ambassador I will contribute to delivering the increased awareness on climate change challenges both individually and collectively.

I am prof. Taina Tukiainen, EU Climate Adaptation Mission Board Member, CoR expert and Climate Pact Ambassador. At the University of Vaasa, I lead research on sustainability, innovation and energy, coordinating the BET project and the Vaasa Climate Commitment. Beyond academia, I am an organic farmer preserving forests and landscapes and managing a sustainable tourism resort. My work advances climate adaptation, industrial decarbonisation, and community-driven sustainability in Finland and EU.

As an ambassador, I will be actively involved in the fight against climate change, I will approach with full responsibility the respect for our planet, I will inspire the local, national and even regional community to carry out its activity protecting the environment.

As Deputy-Mayor of Budapest, I will do everything in my capacity, to implement our Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plan, and to convince other Hungarian local and regional authorities to join the Covenant of Mayors and submit their own climate plans.

I am Iohana Cristina Udrescu, a passionate teacher and trainer dedicated to empowering young people through education. My activities include creating educational content, organizing community events, and fostering continuous engagement through workshops and digital platforms. My goal is to inspire and equip young people to actively participate in shaping a sustainable and just future for their communities.

I am an engineer, former scientist and a strategic consultant for the public sector- mainly to the EU Commission, so am well aware of the EU goal of becoming the first climate-neutral continent by 2050 and the corresponding policy actions put in-place by the EC. I am passionate about continuing to learn and innovation particularly on circular economy practices as a means to tackle climate change. In light of this knowledge and by leveraging my skills (i.e. content writer, inspirational public speaker, passionate continuous learner, creative upcycling artist), I am highly committed to acting as an ambassador firstly to connect with other like-minded ambassadors for collective intelligence. And then to spread key learnings and messages across my network to create an informed society at all levels (i.e., policy makers, public and private sector, civil society organisations, think tanks, NOGs, citizens) to take the right actions collectively and urgently since there is no Planet B! 

I am a science writer, science communicator and marketing specialist with extensive volunteering experience in non-governmental organisations in the fields of climate change and nature protection. Part of my volunteer experience in environment protection has also been in Jiamusi, China. I search and write science stories about climate change, biodiversity and nature protection that educate, inspire and inform. I currently work as a communications specialist for National Institute of Chemistry.

I am a researcher in forest management and planning, and an educator and communicator on climate change causes, impacts and solutions. I believe that reaching out to journalists and teachers is the key to improving awareness of climate change impacts and uptake of both individual and collective solutions (mitigation and adaptation). This is why I commit to continue leading climate simulation games for middle and high school teachers and students, and programming educational courses for journalists with the Climate Media Center that I preside over. 

Alongside countless other young people, my engagement in protests for more climate action began in 2019. Little did I know that the climate crisis would become deeply personal so quickly. In 2021, my friend Rosa tragically lost her life in floods connected to climate change. Despite my best efforts, I was unable to save her.

Since then, I have started the Climate Justice For Rosa campaign, aiming to emphasise that the climate crisis goes beyond percentages and statistics; it is about preserving lives. In 2023, I successfully advocated for the establishment of the "EU Day for the Victims of the Global Climate Crisis." Every year, on July 15th, the EU will pay tribute to all climate victims while contemplating the climate actions necessary to secure a sustainable and secure future for current and future generations. As a Climate Pact ambassador, I continue to raise awareness about the dangers of climate inaction and exert pressure on policymakers, urging them to take action.

Climate litigation is crucial for driving meaningful change and holding governments and entities accountable for their climate impact. As an Ambassador, I'm committed to advancing this cause by expanding my Climate Court initiative and creating more awareness of what goes on in court. I’ll consult on more climate cases and implement a climate litigation accelerator to empower emerging lawyers. I will always ensure that the voices of those most affected are represented in the legal system.
