Member of Climate Gen, 20 years old, majoring in International Relation at Paragon International University

My journey began as an enthusiastic and sociable university student, deeply involved in volunteerism and passionate about making a difference. I spent countless hours working on various community projects, always seeking ways to contribute positively. This drive to create change led me to explore different avenues, but it was my growing concern for environmental issues that truly captured my heart. When I discovered the climate action program, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to channel my passion and learn more about the field.

ClimateGen offered the perfect platform to push my passion into meaningful work, providing the knowledge and community support to make a real difference. Looking back, my time with Climate Gen has been profoundly transformative. Personally, I have gained a profound understanding of sustainability practices and honed my skills in passionately advocating for environmental issues. I also learned to work effectively under pressure, managing tight deadlines and challenges with resilience. I worked with a diverse team to launch an educational campaign that reached over 500 people, raising significant awareness about climate change. These experiences have deepened my knowledge and strengthened my dedication to making an impact in the fight against climate change.

Joining this program has been a grateful moment in my life, allowing me to connect with another youth that also wants to join the environmental program as mine, and understand the challenges our planet faces. I am immensely grateful for the experiences and insights gained, which have undoubtedly shaped my career aspirations and personal growth.
