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.
