Marie Claire-Gaf

Switzerland

Hi I'm Marie! I'm a climate diplomacy and policy consultant, advocate and intersectional activist, Co-Founder of Youth Negotiators Academy, former Focal Point of the Youth Constituency at United Nations Climate Change, and former Vice-Chair on Youth at United Nations Food Systems Summit. I was the youngest negotiator of Switzerland to the UN climate negotiations and I am currently training young diplomats from all over the world for multilateral processes. I have been studying at ETH and the University of Zurich (Political and Environmental Sciences). It’s my aspiration to inspire and empower youth to take meaningful, impactful and positive actions to create momentum for change. I am initiating and leading several associations and movements around climate action, sustainable development, youth and women empowerment, food systems transformation and education such as Sustainability Week International and Real Food Systems.
