Upoznajte naše ambasadore

I am a doctor in glaciology and paleoclimatology. I choose to become a teacher in secondary schools and I am a part of the Teach for Belgium community, which is dedicated at reducing inequity in schools. I am commited to work for social and ecological transition. I coordinate projects around sustainability and citizenship in my school. I personally live this transition in my everyday life, e.g. by living in an ecovillage, and I work so that all students know how to take part in this transition.

I am a very active person in developmental activities, a leader and trainer, and a strong advocate for Climate actions and youth inclusion. I believe that empowering the youth to advance in their climate leadership and pro-environmental decision-making and developing youth green skills for green jobs is a powerful tool to achieve great results in a world where the climate is changing rapidly. At least 97% of published climate experts agree that global warming is real and caused by humans.

I am a proud promoter of initiatives to increase the awareness about environmental issues and risk of climate change. As a researcher, my activities include the study of “greenwashing”, i.e. false corporate communications aimed at conveying a sustainable self-image, and “sustainable tourism”, aimed at containing the environmental impact of the tourism. Results of researches allow to define guidelines for institutional actors, as well as are disseminated to raise awarenessin the community.

I am an Environmental Engineer with over 20 years of research experience at the National Research Council of Italy (CNR-IMAA). Passionate about climate change mitigation and adaptation, as a Climate Pact Ambassador I will engage citizens and students to raise their awareness of the climate crisis, believing that only collective action can achieve the EU goal of climate neutrality and limit global temperature rise.

I am a power engineer with over a decade of experience in renewable energy, especially offshore wind. After becoming a mother, I left the corporate sector to found my own company, creating projects rooted in care, responsibility, and sufficiency. As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I will advocate within the offshore wind community to keep climate at the core of our mission and engage families in dialogue on practical steps toward a sustainable future.

I am a PhD researcher in Bulgaria with experience in international human rights and environmental advocacy. As a former IHRC ambassador, I engaged in global efforts for climate justice. As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I will lead awareness events, publish articles, and promote climate literacy through education and media.

Daniela Piršelová, former tv reporter, and tv news presenter, founder and organizer of the CLIMATE CONFERENCE SLOVAKIA, Spokesperson, Climate Crisis Communication and Advisory at THE UNION OF TOWNS AND CITIES OF SLOVAKIA

 

CLIMATE CONFERENCE SLOVAKIA as a platform is organized by the civic association CLIMATE COMMUNICATIONS SLOVAKIA and is the first Climate Conference for a public audience in Slovakia founded in 2017 with the main goal -  addressing the Climate Crisis humanly and understandably in the language of the general public audience. Founder and organizer is Daniela Piršelová, a former television reporter who deals with this topic at work and in her personal life, and Peter Krajčík, a Climate Leader trained by Former Vice president USA Al Gore, who has been working on the issue for more than 10 years. 

Other activities of CLIMATE CONFERENCE and CLIMATE COMMUNICATIONS SLOVAKIA as Civic Assocation (NGO):

• Pushing climate crises topics  to the Slovak media in the language of the general public audience.
• Cooperating with The Union of Towns and Cities Slovakia (ÚMS) to prepare municipalities and take appropriate steps to fight climate crises and to officially declare a climate emergency.
• Mission Australia, helping to replant corals on the most damaged sections of the reefs caused by global warming and climate change.
• Bringing exclusively An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth To Power documentary movie back in 2017 to most of the Slovak Cinemas to raise awareness on climate crises in Slovakia

I believe that the real change starts from people. I have long been active in both my professional life as lifelong learner, and in leadership roles within Lions, promoting environmental responsibility and sustainable development. As an Ambassador, I will initiate Climate Action Groups, share weekly stories, and focus especially on engaging communities with lower climate awareness, including areas with high immigrant populations, to inspire change in values, attitudes, and everyday choices. 

I am Mayor of Pollica and a long-time leader in ecological transition. I coordinate a network of Mediterranean communities to turn climate action into everyday governance. With the BLUERA initiative and the Future Lands Coalition, I empower youth, local policy makers, and global leaders to shape a resilient, just, and regenerative future.

I spread awareness about the consequences of everyday choices in order to support sustainable alternatives. I focus on households, because they govern consumption habits connected to a whole range of industries. I want to contribute to the change in Czech Republic. I want a sustainable future for my children.

As a young climate activist, passionate volunteer and youth worker, I focus on working with children and young people to raise awareness and the ability of the young generation to take action. I am actively involved at the school level and in NGOs that provide informal education in the field of climate and sustainability. I co-organize community and public events as a member of the Klíma ťa potrebuje organization, where I want to continue to be active and develop my skills and abilities.

As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I aim to bring and simplify the topics of climate policies, renewable energy, and green modernization into schools, drawing on my experience in energy and climate program management, awareness-rising project implementation on effective waste management and environmental protection, development work focused on climate-resilient WASH. Through workshops, local partnerships, and lectures, I plan to advocate, inspire and educate those who represent our future.

I am a biodiversity expert and a nature educator dedicated to promoting climate and sustainability education through creative learning tools and workshops. I develop board games and workshops that help teachers and students explore topics such as biodiversity loss and climate change. As a Climate Pact Ambassador, I aim to strengthen climate education in schools and inspire wider community engagement.

My work will focus on advocating the vulnerable people, groups and communities about climate change in the context of Human Rights. Encourage, support and inspire active participation, collaboration and synergies for joint initiatives and actions. Promoting social dialogue and engaging civil society. Disseminate knowledge, information and good practices so that any efforts on fighting climate change can be perceived as commonplace and become an everyday-life attitude.

I am a climate activist, physicist, and energy engineer with a strong focus on sustainable transport. I have significant experience working on low-carbon energy solutions and have a good understanding of how we can reduce emissions in the transport sector. I am really passionate about getting people excited about cleaner, more sustainable ways to get around. I would love to bring my experience to events and projects that raise awareness and inspire others to embrace greener transport options.

My first priority is to build bridges between the European Climate Pact and global multi-stakeholder climate action efforts in the context of the United Nations system (link to a UN event that I have organized in June 2020 http://webtv.un.org/watch/un75-webinar-all-of-society-digital-cooperation-for-global-goals-climate-action/6168132430001).

My second priority is to connect digital innovation solution providers with the climate action community to develop concrete climate action apps & tools.

At the moment I am a student in the final year of highschool that is truly interested in International Relations. More specifically, starting with volunteering and becoming really passionate about the change the young generation can make if correctly informed, I have begun to find solutions and to understand diplomacy. As a European Climate Pact Ambassador, I see two main goals that have to be achieved: growing more local communities throughout the country and unite them on a greater movement.

Climate action is dependent upon education. I have been active in this field, and have initiated and coordinated a wide range of activities aiming at raising awareness and comprehension on how people can effect change. More people need to experience and learn about the significance of conservation, the value of a sustainable future, and the need to make responsible decisions. Environmental education must be promoted in our libraries, which are suitable spaces for lifelong learning.

I am a legal professional and active volunteer passionate about and commited to climate, human rights, and social inclusion. I aim to empower students in vulnerable schools through interactive workshops, educational guides, and outreach via articles and social media. I want to help young people understand climate and biodiversity challenges and take concrete, practical action in their communities.
