Passionate about food, community and land stewardship, Sophie (she/her) can usually be found with her hands in the ground. She brings her experience in agroecological, community-driven initiatives, locally and globally, with a strong foundation in decolonial feminist training and gender-based violence policy. Committed to amplifying youth voices in environmental spaces, Sophie is excited to join the 2024 YEW team. Her priority topics for the H-2030 initiative are centering Indigenous Knowledge and promoting ecosystem services within agriculture to support biodiversity. She is excited to learn and contribute and looks forward to engaging with youth perspectives on pressing environmental issues.
