Agnes De Rooij - Solar Generation Coordinator

Usually mistaken for one of the students of the Solar Generation project, I am actually working for Greenpeace since 2003.

After I finished my studies in Economics (believe it or not, there are economists working at Greenpeace!) I decided not to join my fellow students who went to work for the big cooperations (and who are now earning big $$$), but got my first serious job at Greenpeace - and never left. For a year now, I have been coordinating the Solar Generation project, which supports students all around the world to campaign for clean energy and energy efficiency on their schools and universities.

I consider myself lucky to give young people a chance to speak up to politicians at conferences all over the world. It's amazing to see the power of the voice of the youth and to see the impact they are having.

Are you coordinating anyone or any group at Mexico? Are you aware of any project here (Mexico City)? What you do sounds pretty interesting and I would love to help, if you're interested in launching something in Mexico or if you have anything going on here. I work in a private university in Mexico City so it would be interesting...
Good luck,

PH

hey agnes! we're lucky to have a great sg int coordinator, too! :) hope to see you soon! ;)

How my friends, who is studying Green building in Frnace and is not a GreenPeace activist, could contact you for assistance?

Hi PH,

Our public email address is supporter.services@int.greenpeace.org. Stuff sent there gets passed around to the best person to deal with it.

But I've already passed your email address on.
