Why did you want to become a member of the YEE board?

I wanted to share my knowledge and skills and also develop them further. Two years ago I've been working as board member, therefore I know how it works and I really liked it. With this experience this year I can focus on my tasks as project officer. I chose this position because I'm interested in developing valuable projects which are bringing a change. This is also a great opportunity to work in an international team with those fantastic people!

I would like to bring attention on environmental input of our projects. I would also like to encourage our Member Organizations to organize local projects and to cooperate more with each other. On the other side, I really would like to push YEE one level higher in international campaigns and involvement in creating or changing policy to be more environmentally focused.

Lack of environmental consciousness of people which I think is base of all other problems and crisis. Also low level of public participation in nature protection.
