Victoria is indeed a strong advocate for the preservation and protection of environmental, human and animal rights. Taking a political science stance throughout her Master programme specializing in Global Environmental Governance, Sustainability & Climate Change, she gained a better understanding of the way societies work, the urgency of the climate crisis, how to actually spark change and take concrete action. She envisions for the future a more egalitarian society, one which lives in greater harmony with the environment and that has an inclusive economic system. Victoria craves being a part of making this world of ours a better place, and is excited to start with changing the internet and how we use it with the organization!
