Responsibilities

Raising awareness of the climate crisis and working with youth is my life's purpose. I use the term crisis because climate change only began in 1863. Since then it has become a climate crisis and today a climate catastrophe.

As an environmental science student, I have a solid foundation in sustainability concepts and terms.

Through interactive activities such as the Theatre of the Oppressed, flashmobs, seed bomb workshops, recycling maze quizzes, group recycling workshops it is possible to highlight the basic concepts of climate change, the upcoming concept of the climate migrant that we are slowly experiencing, and how with small changes in our routines we can contribute to sustainability. Finally, in collaboration with institutes and forums we will undertake a policy exercise with the ministry of education around integrating climate sustainability into the education education system given it is a key pillar for the development of  next generations.
