About Rebecca's Community Action Project

My community action project, developed within the CEE framework, proposes creating a Community Youth Observatory Against Wildlife Trafficking and Invasive Species in Ecuador. The initiative will train and mobilize young people from rural areas and secondary cities as environmental defenders by combining biodiversity education, civic participation, art, and policy advocacy to strengthen community monitoring, cultural expression, and ecological commitment.

About Rebecca

I am a communicator and project manager committed to transformative processes that intertwine strategic communication, connection with the territory, and care for humanity. In my professional role, I have accompanied leaders, organizations, and social causes, understanding that communication is not only about informing but also about building bridges and generating collective meaning. As a feminist and spiritual woman, I deeply value spaces that promote inner growth, critical awareness, and collaboration among peers. I am interested in continuing to strengthen my personal and professional path from a more connected, coherent, and regenerative perspective.
