    Italian-Lebanese Communications Manager, with a background in Natural and Environmental Sciences, I am a consultant/expert on issues related to ecofeminism, I have been dealing with climate change and sustainability since 2019. I currently collaborate with the Albanian Observatory (founded by UNICEF), thanks to which I had the opportunity to develop a research on the impacts of climate change on Albanian women, with a focus on water, agriculture, health and environmental disasters. I am co-founder and Secretary of the NGO Change for Planet, active in Italy since 2020, with which over the years I have implemented numerous projects and communication campaigns, up to the creation of a free climate camp for more than 100 young people selected from across the peninsula. I write for some Italian blogs and newspapers and am an observer/press during the COPs.
