Mød vores ambassadører

With a rich educational background, I bridge nutrition and climate action.

I am a PhD researcher developing sustainable batteries for electric vehicles to support transport electrification. I also host the Transition CrossRoads podcast, where I engage stakeholders on Africa’s energy transition and its multidimensional nature, distilling key insights to support stakeholders in making informed decisions to drive Africa’s energy transition goals.  My goal is to foster stronger Africa-EU collaboration on the implementation of the European Green Deal.

There is no solutios to climate change without the EU. I see my role as ambassador as that of capturing the attention and building citizens' understanding of the EU Green Deal and its success through people's ideas and participation. But my role is also to listen to citizens and let the EU know what they think and what they want in order to achieve together the ultimate goal: "A clean, sustainable and better world for us and future generations in an EU to be proud of".

As an active citizen, parent, teacher and enterpreneur, I’m committed to fostering awareness and action on climate change through education and community engagement.

I was the principal negotiator on behalf of my country at the climate change conferences between 1991 and 2010 and represented Hungary at the related EU-meetings. Afterwards, I attended such meetings as NGO-representative (e.g. Paris COP, 2015). Such topics were part of my publications and books. I teach environmental topics and regularly make presentations on them at various meetings. 

Farkas-Barta Kata vagyok, a környezetéért aggódó több gyermekes édesanya. A saját és gyermekeim jövőjére gondolva engem is foglalkoztat a klímaváltozás problémája, melyet az utóbbi években mind jobban érzékelek a saját bőrömön is. De hiszem, hogy még nincs késő, hogy megállítsuk a katasztrófa felé száguldó folyamatokat. Ehhez viszont cselekednünk kell! Én esőkerteket építek a közös célért és népszerűsítem azokat a lakosság és a települések körében.

ENG: My name is Kata Farkas-Barta, and I am a mother of several children who cares about the environment. Thinking about my own future and that of my children, I am also concerned about climate change, which I have been experiencing more and more in recent years. But I believe that it is not too late to stop the processes that are leading us towards disaster. To do this, however, we must take action! I am building rain gardens for our common goal and promoting them among the population and local communities.

During my tenure, Kežmarok has become a leader in the implementation of renewable energy sources and climate-responsible solutions.

There is no doubt that Climate Change is THE BIG CHALLENGE we must overcome for our next generations. Tackling the social transformation needed to minimise its effects is a drive that must be addressed in our daily lives. As an ambassador, my goal is to raise awareness by sharing my knowledge. By carrying out playful educational projects in real-life scenarios. Offering different points of view to be able to face change with learning guarantees. Let's get started?

I am deeply passionate about combating climate change and promoting sustainability. With a background in renewable energy, technology innovation, and regulatory expertise, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a track record of impactful climate engagement. As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I am committed to inspiring positive change by fostering community awareness, particularly among underserved groups, about the benefits of sustainable transportation. Through educational materials, community workshops, and active participation in climate-related events, I aim to drive local action and contribute to the broader European climate agenda. My dedication to making a tangible difference is grounded in a belief that collective action is key to addressing our planet's most pressing challenges.

Soy bióloga, activista y futura docente. Llevo 2 años con puestos de responsabilidad en torno a la reforestación y el compromiso con la sosteniblidad en la asociación juvenil equipo Europa. Soy la vocal de juventud en la asociación ecologista ADEGA. Considero que desde la educación, tanto como formal como no formal podemos concienciar y cambiar la sociedad a mejor. La juventud es el futuro, por lo que me gustaría incidir con mis acciones en este segmento de la población. TRANSLATION: I am a biologist, activist and future teacher. I have been working for 2 years in positions of responsibility around reforestation and commitment to sustainability in the youth association Equipo Europa. I am the youth spokesperson in the environmental association ADEGA. I believe that through education, both formal and non-formal, we can raise awareness and change society for the better. Youth is the future, so I would like to influence with my actions in this segment of the population.

As a climate and environmental communicator, I will communicate the results and findings of official agency reports, as well as the most relevant news to make it easier for people to understand. Information on the current state of the planet is a right and is essential in the climate fight.

In this sense, the creation of content in social networks is an entertaining and approachable way of communicating the greatest challenge facing humanity in this century.

 I am a dreamer who believes change starts with one young person at a time.

 As a teacher from middle school to university, I align my work with the European Green Deal, promoting climate education for sustainability and active citizenship.

Highly committed person, great vocation for cooperation, strong environmentalist character, I am delegate of the Spanish Association of Women in Energy. I believe that from my professional position as well as from my passion and enthusiasm I can transmit this energy of change. I have been working on environment and climate for almost 15 years and every day it is still necessary to force greater coordination in communication and social commitment. Climate is changing, why aren't we? Be the change you want to see in the world!

I believe in the power of education as a form of climate action.  As a mother of two, I believe that our children need to be outside in direct contact with nature and eco-systems, allowing them to better appreciate our dependence and its fragility. As a Pact Ambassador I would like to make education for sustainable development more present in the minds of Luxembourg residents, both through community-led initiatives and school curriculums.  I will work to leverage my existing network in the field of sustainability to further the vision for NaturED by working with the students at the University of Luxembourg through my work at CELL. Finally, I hope to leverage connections through the European Schools of Luxembourg in order to gain buy-in from the teaching community on the benefits of outdoor education as an experiential learning method and its integration into curriculums and the syllabus. 

I am a PhD candidate in Climate Change and Sustainable Development Policies at the University of Lisbon, engaged in research about the role of children in climate-related public policies. Children are bearing the consequences of climate change, they are worried and willing to take action: adults need to create mechanisms so that their views are taken into account by political leaders and policymakers. In parallel, I teach climate change to elderly people in my community (UNISSEIXAL).
