Episode 15: Exploring the Journey to Sustainability with The Earth Prize 2023 Youth Board member Carlota Ferro

October 20, 2023 The Earth Foundation Season 1 Episode 15

In today's episode, we sit down with the dynamic 17-year-old, Carlota Ferro. Hailing from Lisbon but now calling Geneva home, Carlota is not only a student at College du Leman, Switzerland, but also a fervent advocate for international causes. With a keen focus on inequality, discrimination, and sustainability, she wears multiple hats. As the president of a student group in her school, she spearheads fundraising for WATU, a charity dedicated to advancing education in Tanzania. Additionally, Carlota champions sustainability as the president of the CDL Environmental Association. Her drive took her to the Villars Symposium in 2022, collaborating with peers, educators, and the notable Norwegian food activist, Gunhild Stordalen. They united to champion the adoption of planetary health diets in educational settings. As she gears up to dive into politics, international relations, and social sciences in London next year, Carlota continues to inspire and drive change. Join us as we uncover her journey and aspirations.
