With 10+ years advising corporates on compliance, due diligence, EIA/permitting and ESG - and a lifelong neurodivergent lens - I’m relentlessly meticulous about turning standards into action. As an Ambassador for The Jena Declaration and a Climate Leadership Expert with UNEP/GRID‑Warsaw, I link environmental and social dimensions. I enthusiastically publish practical insights and proudly support NGOs such as Engineers Without Borders UK, the Wetland Conservation Centre and Open Cages.

As a human being, a mother and a global citizen, I have an existential and fundamental responsibility to do good and lead by example. As a biologist and in my role as an educator at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, I have the privilege to interact with the future's stake holders, educators, policy-makers and influencers. Witnessing the unprecedented devastation from mega fires and floods in Greece and the rest of Europe, it has become imperative to act with urgency.

As Pact Ambassador, I commit to sharing knowledge through science, working towards a better understanding of the mechanisms of life; macro and micro worlds. My aim will be to raise awareness of environmental issues among multi-disiplinary groups and different educational tiers; primary education to post-graduate level. I intend to introduce innovative teaching tools for better student engagement and development of skills to enhance learning and an understanding of climate change.

As President of the Scientific Committee of NGO ECOCITY and an environmental lawyer, I combine legal expertise with grassroots climate action. Through campaigns like ECOMOBILITY and FREE MOBILITY, we empower youth—including vulnerable groups—to promote sustainability.

My goal is to present what can be done to help preserve our environment and help raise awareness in communities not just in my Podravje region and Slovenia but across the whole EU so as to make things in more sustainable, circular and  environmentally friendly ways, across both public and private sectors.

My name is Anastasios Kotsiras and I am a creative content designer and animator, living in Athens Greece.

I am also a young parent, and that was the main reason for me to use my knowledge and specialties in creating the eco-educational project "Save your Planet".

In the process of creating the project, I got involved in the environmental issues, the problems of our planet, and how to save our planet.

I will focus on developing systematic education for young people on environmental topics through the creation of educational videos for schools.

As a lecturer at the University of Primorska, I am deeply committed to embedding the principles of climate protection into both my academic teaching and community involvement. Through my work at the university and my collaborations with local organizations, I strive to educate, advocate, and act for sustainable development in our community.

I believe that food is tied to many aspects of life. Food is a political act and a solid social institution. Food is a cultural matter after all. I would like to write a new narrative about the way we eat because it affects our roots, our ground, and our future.  

Hey, My name is Veronika Kralova and I'm from the Czech Republic. I study at the Faculty of Law in Prague and I work at the Academy of Sciences at the Centre for Climate Law and Sustainability.

I am environmental advocate and civic activist based in Riga, Latvia. 
Waste incineration is one of the most controversial questions in Europe’s waste and climate policy.
For too long, it’s been sold as a quick fix to shrink landfills and produce energy. But the truth is clear: pollutes the environment, fuels climate change, and diverts us from real solutions like reduction, reuse, and recycling. 
People need to hear about the alternatives and why incineration belongs to the past.

I plan future projects and publications in this area as well as organisation of and participation in various events, including conferences, workshops and discussion panels that create platforms that are indispensable for sharing information, experiences and the creation new ideas. I believe that working together in an interdisciplinary and international environment, we will achieve our intended goals.

I pursue an inter- and multidisciplinary approach that is driven by the passion to analyse and understand complex topics and design meaningful solutions to these challenges. I was also chairman of numerous associations and initiatives, a member of many national and international high state councils, and a Luxembourg representative at numerous political and academic conferences.

My planned activities as a climate ambassador, in addition to cooperative and international exchange with other ambassadors, are lobbying and raising awareness for social and political sustainability concepts and the development of information and motivation strategies for necessary, sustainable transformation processes.

Climate change is a challenge and a chance at the same time. I strongly believe that a better world is possible and everyone need to take action. This is the reason why I want to spread awareness, and interact with people all around the globe.

I am particularly interested in sustainable development, circular economy, and cradle to cradle.
