About Me

I have always dreamt of a world without injustices. This conviction first lead me, at the age of 14, to get involved with a youth solidarity group that has international projects with Haiti. This woke in me a profound interest and respect for the world and its diversity of people, which led me to Europe, South America and Asia. I have feed my passion for fighting injustices by getting involved in community groups having positive environmental and social intentions. As a radical feminist, I am also involved with some feminist groups.
I graduated in Biosystems Engineering.I profoundly believes that climate change is the biggest challenge next generations will have to face. The 21st century is at risk, as there is 3 main challenges, all linked, that can have important consequences on the citizen of this planet :
1) Over population
2) Natural resources are decreasing
3) Climate change
In order to avoid war, food depletion, diseases, floods, many things should be faced. This starts by the transition from the capitalism system through a more equitable system, by the redistribution of the wealth on this Earth, and by a real EQUALITY and SOLIDARITY of all the people on the planet. We shall stop to be so divided, this profites only to the rich who keep going richer while we are not united, working all together. As Quilapayun said in their wonderful song :

El pueblo, unido, jamas sera vencido!
