 About Me |
I am a French speaking Acadian from rural Prince Edward Island, the smallest Canadian province. I have always had an interest in humanities and the world that surrounds me. I completed a bachelor’s program in Recreational studies and Sociology at the University of Moncton (NB), not knowing where my true interests lied. My real eye and mind-opening experience was my participation in the Canada World Youth program in Ontario and Tanzania in 2003-2004. Upon my return, I immediately started looking for opportunities to deepen my knowledge about these global issues. I thus did a 6-month internship with CUSO and NetCorps in Kingston, Jamaica 2004-2005. In order to increase my understanding and to complement these practical experiences, I am currently completing a master’s degree in International Studies at the Université de Montréal. My activism in environmental issues is a big part of my life and my everyday activities. With the university I am involved with youth activist groups such as the North-South Committee; dedicated to educate students and employees on issues affecting us here and abroad. I have also worked as an interpreter for Parks Canada for 4 summers, educating visitors on the importance of preserving the ecological integrity of these unique ecosystems. My interest in climate change? It affects everybody; if there is one way to change the world, it definitely involves preserving the planet we will be living in for the next few decades.
Glad to be part of this united effort and a great pleasure to meet you all,
Nathalie Arsenault
