WHY HOME FOR HUMANITY?:

"The complex challenges humanity is facing can only be addressed through a collective effort to address the root causes. It is our responsibility to do our best where we are with what we have to shift the paradigm, both by embodying our values and advancing towards a more just and regenerative future with our work. Home for Humanity stands for the paradigm shifts that I believe are essential to walk this path into a new tomorrow: for a shared journey, for co-creation, for coming home to our humanity, for embracing interdependence, for starting with ourselves,

and for belonging - to ourselves, to each other, to the rest of nature, to this planet that is our home."

BIO:

A changemaker since her teens, she has a background in youth engagement and active citizenship. She presided the European Youth Parliament Switzerland from 2014-2016 and organised an International Session of the EYP in Laax (GR), under the Patronage of then Federal Councillor Didier Burkhalter.

In 2017, she co-founded collaboratio helvetica, an initiative that catalyses systemic change towards the Agenda 2030 in Switzerland by cultivating a cross-sectoral innovation ecosystem, building the needed capacity, open knowledge sharing, and empowering systems change leaders. She was amongst others recognised for her outstanding contribution by Forbes (30 under 30), UNEP, UNESCO and the Swiss government, and spoke at events such as the Conference of Swiss Development Cooperation, the Swiss Conference of city mayors, TEDx and on global stages next to high level changemakers such as Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus.

She holds a BA in International Affairs from the University of St. Gallen and a MSt in Social Innovation from the University of Cambridge. In 2023, she created the well • change atelier to make art-based processes and tools to cultivate connection, creativity, and well-being available to more changemakers, strengthening our ability to do this important work sustainably over time.
