31. A reflection on the Dublona Journey
Manage episode 313024636 series 3256228
In Episode 31, we are joined by alumni from the Dublona 2020 Climate-KIC Journey, Andrea Rey and Eszter Krisan, as they discuss their interests and experiences in the field of climate action, as well as the personal projects they have been able to begin as a result of the summer school. Living in Budapest, Eszter’s climate passions lie in urban systems and how they adapt to climate change. This interest inspired her Climate-KIC project Green Grip, which seeks to add green (leafy) panels to the sides of post-Soviet buildings to make them more liveable for local residents. Meanwhile, Andrea’s climate journey was inspired while growing up in Peru. Surrounded by “natural treasures,” she was shocked by how badly they were being managed. After a BA in Geography and Environmental Studies, she decided to pursue her passions at Wageningen University, where she is currently studying an MA specialising in Ecological and Agroecoligcal Systems. This is a fun episode, which highlights the value cross-sectoral collaboration, humility and open communication bring to climate action. Have a listen!
