June 30th, 2025
We’re excited to share our new ambassadors with you!
People's Planet Project’s ambassadors are the face of our intiative, close collaborators in our impact campaigns and references in conservation and fight for indigenosu rights. We are deeply honoured to see such inspiring individuals amplify our mission and grow our ambassador network.
We are exited to create beautiful and impactful projects with their experience and platforms driven by the same need to protect people and planet - we are looking forward to share more stories and inspiration with you very soon.
Farwiza Farhan is a forest conservationist working to protect the Leuser Ecosystem in Sumatra, Indonesia - where rhinos, tigers, elephants, and orangutans coexist in the wild. As chairperson of the Forest, Nature and Environment Aceh Foundation (HAkA), she leads efforts that blend policy, advocacy, and grassroots action to preserve this vital landscape.
Committed to community-led conservation, Farwiza founded HAkA to empower Indigenous and local voices in shaping environmental policy. Under her leadership, the organization has achieved major victories, including a $26 million ruling for forest restoration and the cancellation of a hydropower dam threatening elephant habitat.
Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Anthropology and Development Studies at Radboud University, her research focuses on the political economy of natural resource management in Aceh.
In 2022, she was named to the TIME100 list for her tireless work toward a future where people and nature thrive together.
"Peace is rooted in justice - justice for the land, for the beings who move through it, and for the ancestral knowledge and wisdom that for generations have long protected it."
Born to a Brazilian mother and a Sufi-Iranian father, Elis was raised within a rich tapestry of cultures and traditions.
From the ages of four to seventeen, her parents led her to study Eastern philosophy and the Sanskrit scriptures - one of the foundations that deeply shaped her understanding of interconnectedness, Earth, and life.
Elis’ work lives at the intersection of women’s rights, environmental justice, and Indigenous sovereignty. These are not separate causes - they are profoundly interwoven. She sees her presence in the fashion industry as a strong form of advocacy.
Christian Braga is a freelance photographer and documentary filmmaker from Manaus, in the Brazilian Amazon. For over a decade, his work has centered on the Amazon region, with a deep focus on Indigenous rights, environmental justice, and forest protection.
He has collaborated with national and international organizations including Greenpeace, Instituto Socioambiental (ISA), and the Pulitzer Center. His powerful imagery has appeared in National Geographic, The Guardian, Al Jazeera, The Intercept, and Sumaúma, and has been exhibited in galleries and museums across Brazil and abroad.
Through photography and filmmaking, Braga continues to advocate for the Amazon and its peoples on both local and global stages.
Clara Tomé is a EU Climate Pact ambassador, UN Climate verified agent and environmental legal counsel graduated from the University of Rovira i Virgili, Spain.
With more than 9 years of experience on law and as a nature’s advocate in different spaces, Clara has gained knowledge in climate and environmental justice, intersectional sustainability, animal welfare, biodiversity conservation and nature‘s rights.
She has worked at UNEP and currently she works at GARN Youth, advocating for the Rights of Nature, and as a legal counsel.
She delivers talks at high-level conferences, and has her own education program for youth on climate and sustainability topics. She is also an impact producer for documentaries and a campaigner.
We’re excited to see the impact this collaboration will bring - amplifying our work, reaching more frontline communities affected by deforestation and climate change, and making evidence-based storytelling tools more accessible to tell their own stories. Together, we aim to strengthen legal support, increase visibility, and help drive policy change to protect their territories.
