Zuzana Václavová

Zuzana_V__clavov__.jpgZuzana Václavová studied ecology at the Technical University of Zvolen, the Faculty of Ecology and Environmental Sciences. As she is convinced that climate changes influence nature enormously she wants to do some a small thing which can help reduce the negative impacts. She has been interested in this problem for a long time. As a result, she has participated in the Challenge Europe project from the very beginning. Zuzana would like to share her experience with the new advocates as she thinks that as a team they can advance faster. In order to achieve some positive change and reduce carbon use she finds environmental education vital. She would like to initiate a pilot project that could be inspirational and followed by others.
