Lernen Sie unsere Botschafterinnen und Botschafter kennen

My name is Dima. I was born in Latvia, but been living in many different countries in Europe since.

I am musician, scuba diver, video maker and environmentalist. After making a career in music I devoted myself fully to the nature protection. I have became vegan in 2008 after watching documentary "Earthlings". That is when I recognised the power of video camera. Since then I have been volunteering for environment restoration, nature and wildlife protection with many different organisations and projects.

Now I use the super power of the camera to change the values of our society. I would love to see a world when planting a tree is more "cool" than a new Iphone. I think biodiversity is magic, and we need not only to preserve it, but also make it thrive. That is my aim for the future, to volunteer more, to make more videos and never stop!

I am a student at the University of Luxembourg, a delegate for Sustainability, and president of the Student Association for Sustainability. As an Ambassador, I will organise weekly events and meetings over the year to come. I want to involve students directly as they are today's and tomorrow's citizens. I am ready to collaborate with the local coordinator and the European community of ambassadors to promote the European Climate Pact. I am willing to create a solid local team that will be then ready to spread awareness on climate change, the environment, and sustainability for the future.

I plan to take a "glocal" approach, working for climate action at the local level and communicating my knowledge about European and International green policies. On the one hand, my interest is to share knowledge about European policies on the environment, climate action and sustainability with my networks (Opino Juris readers and Instagram profile). On the other hand, I want to continue to promote projects with our association and local community, from waste collection to nature care to education on various initiatives, including EU initiatives. My goal is to promote EU initiatives and policies and make them accessible to citizens. I want citizens to be aware and motivated to act.

In meiner Rolle als Botschafter setze ich mich leidenschaftlich für die Stärkung des Umweltbewusstseins, Nachhaltigkeit und die Entwicklung neuer Ansätze in den Bereichen Recycling, Konsum, Mobilität und Energie ein. Meine geplanten Aktivitäten umfassen Kooperationen, Workshops und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit um Menschen verschiedenen Alters und sozialer Herkunft zu erreichen und für Umweltthemen zu begeistern. Ich möchte Raum für Dialoge über Umweltfragen schaffen, um verschiedene Perspektiven und Ansichten einzubeziehen um gemeinsam Lösungen zu entwickeln. Besonders wichtig ist mir dabei die Einbindung von Senioren um ihr Verständnis für den Klimawandel zu vertiefen und selbst aktiv einen Beitrag zum Umweltschutz zu leisten. Gleichzeitig möchte ich aufzeigen, wie auch Menschen mit niedrigem Einkommen nachhaltiger leben können, ohne dabei ihre finanzielle Belastung zu erhöhen. Ein weiteres zentrales Thema ist die Integration von Umweltbildung als Teil des Lehrplans in den Schulalltag.

Translation - In my role as an ambassador, I am passionate about raising environmental awareness, sustainability and developing new approaches in the areas of recycling, consumption, mobility and energy. My planned activities include collaborations, workshops and public relations work to reach people of different ages and social backgrounds and get them excited about environmental issues. I want to create space for dialog on environmental issues, to include different perspectives and views in order to develop solutions together. It is particularly important to me to involve senior citizens in order to deepen their understanding of climate change and to make an active contribution to environmental protection themselves. At the same time, I want to show how people on low incomes can live more sustainably without increasing their financial burden. Another key issue is the integration of environmental education as part of the school curriculum.

I'm a philosopher and I decided to take action against climate change starting with school students. My projects aim to make young students (ages 12-13) aware of the strong power they have in taking action against climate change, influencing parents and friends. I started from two schools in Abruzzo, Italy, but I want my project to be an example to others. 

Some years ago, I also started working with the University of Ferrara on Circular Economy projects, in order to find the best way to communicate how to change the process of industrialization into a new approach, eco-design for example. The entrepreneurs do not immediately understand how useful it is to reduce gas emissions, reduce waste, etc... until they connect it to the advantage that being carbon-free is directly linked to better living, a better future for us all, and also an increased value of the brand.

University Researchers are a unique and rich source of information that can be applied with success to solve the problems of the companies. Together they are a great team to face the new challenges of this ecological transition and not only.

I defended my master's degree in Building Science with the focus on "Sustainable Building and Low Energy Building Design".

I dealt with the assessment of Building Energy Performance Before and After Refurbishment, conducted Airtightness Tests, Thermal Imaging as well as Simulations. The main issue that I have confronted in practice was incorrect approaches on planning energy efficient buildings.

Thus we have started an initiative improving that with the help of Process Optimization & BIM to BEM.

I am the co-founder of Cycling 4 Climate, a foundation which aims to make working on sustainability fun through cycling. I am planning to organise various cycling events to raise awareness, and stimulate action for the climate.

Hi, its Nessi

As an ambassador I want and I will promote information and activities that people can do to be more green, efficient and effective related to our good green practices, and in our day a day - lifestyle.

Fields that are regular to everyone as: The use of energy and different ways of reducing the consump in ways of investment and/or the effective use of electricity, - The consump of food, water and materials

New ways of travelling and transport, new ways of agriculture production,

As an ambassador, I want the work that I do to be amplified. I want to have more youth organisations and young people in general involved in climate discussions. From workshops, to protests, to academic reports, to localised actions that could be proposed by youth organisations themselves, I want to keep the discussion going and for those discussions to be transformed into actions by those who have the power to make true change.

I am a dedicated advocate for climate action and sustainability. As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I am committed to making a positive impact on the environment and my minority community. My primary focus is on organising educational workshops, where I aim to inspire and educate the next generation about the importance of sustainable living and climate responsibility. Through engaging presentations, informative articles, and interactive workshops, I will empower participants to take concrete steps towards a greener future. Together, we'll work towards a more sustainable, climate-conscious Europe.

I am a 27-year-old ICT teacher, leading "Mladi za Đakovo," and actively engaged in local NGOs. As a Climate Pact ambassador, I will promote climate education in schools, establish a community eco-center, and partner with NGOs for tree-planting, waste reduction, and clean-up projects. I will also advocate for sustainable urban planning and green infrastructure in Đakovo, aiming to showcase our city as a model of climate action within the European Climate Pact network.

I am a dedicated advocate for transforming the fashion industry towards sustainability. With a passion for creating a positive impact, my vision is to be at the forefront of change, raising my voice and pioneering initiatives to reshape the fashion landscape. I am committed to promoting sustainable practices through active engagement, leveraging my role to make a change throughout all levels globally. I aim to contribute to a liveable world for future generations. 

My aim is to reach out to all people who are believing in God and his creation from a christian perspective under consideration of preservation of all beings. My main target groups are all people who are living in a church community, the dean`s, pastor`s, youth groups, the church based environmental officer`s, complete church districts as well as bishops and the church managament and the NGO I am working with. My motivation is based in the oecumenical peace movement in the former GDR.

I am originally from the Souss Valley, South west Morocco, that experiences now severe drought & water shortage. This had trigger since long time ago my deep and sharp consciousness about climate change impact (even before it becomes a public topic). I pledged to myself 15 years ago to act at my personal level, as well as with all others for whom ecology matters, to spread the awareness about climate change and how our acts can help in the global effort. I want to plant trees again in my region!

As a freelance climate advocate and author, I dedicate my time to advancing climate action in schools through writing and lecturing around the conclusions in my book "Talk To Children About Climate". Because an educational system reform must be at the heart of building a sustainable, just and resilient society. A starting point is ensuring all countries offer science-based climate education, helping young people build emotional resilience and introducing students early on to collective action.

I am also the Co-founder of the citizen-led climate data platform, Klimatkollen (Climate Checker), aiming to provide citizens with relevant and actionable climate data to help advance the Paris Agreement and bring down emissions in line with science.

As a geologist specialising in the study of past climate change, I have gained invaluable insights into the forcings shaping our planet. My work, today focused on Mediterranean wetlands, has been a journey of discovery, highlighting the profound impacts of human-induced factors on our ecosystems. However, our planet is constantly under the influence of natural forces and understanding the past is crucial for comprehending the present and shaping the future.  I am committed to educating people about biodiversity, flora, vegetation, and climate change, engaging citizens including students. Partnering with the Green Office in Florence, I promote sustainability, bridging theory and practice. With my background and experience, I aim to drive meaningful and lasting change towards a more sustainable and resilient future for our planet. The knowledge of our climatic past is integral to our journey towards a brighter environmental future.

I consider myself a concerned and caring citizen of the earth. As my duty towards my planet, I actively volunteer for environment and climate related events of Greenpeace Luxembourg. I am also an active member of Foodsharing Luxembourg, a group of concerned citizens on a mission to save any wastage of food. In 2023, I completed a one year Certificate in Sustainable Development and Social Innovation course at the University of Luxembourg. During this course I worked on citizen science projects with a peer group. I firmly believe that only with a mindset of sustainable development, we can help ourselves as well as the next generations to live in harmony with the ecosystem and stop more damage to our planet.

An entire career as an economic and environmental historian made me aware that strengthening the interaction between Academia and society is key to act on climate change. As President of Leonardo-IRTA, Research Institute of the environment and territories, I intend to fulfil my mission as Climate Pact Ambassador by signalling the climate added value of our projects on all occasions in which citizens and local to national institutions are involved (meetings, publications, online platforms).
