“After more than 20 years dedicated to study, research and teaching environmental law, in private universities at first and now in a public university, is a big challenge to participate in an environmental Foundation looking forward to make significant changes.
The creativity of the Foundation’s members and their commitment with the environment, motivate me to contribute with innovative ideas and proposals that are applicable and attainable. So we can make a change and contribute to sustainable development”

“Ever since I was a little girl I have always been interested in the environmental protection, however, it wasn't until university where I got deeply involved with sustainable agriculture, science diffusion and environmental education. I volunteered, for almost two years, in a group where whose main mission was to promote sustainable development through environmental friendly agriculture techniques.
I truly believe that education can change the situation of a whole country and I believe the same with environmental education”
