Alexa Camargo
Co-founder of EcoNova
Alexa has a background as lawyer in business law and specifically in intellectual property. She started as entrepreneur at a young age in the sustainable economy. She also holds a MBA.
Environment, innovation, art and urban agriculture are some of her passions.
The mission of EcoNova is aligned with her conviction that environmental education must be a priority in our societies. Because our future depends on the students of today, that will be the ones taking decisions for us. We must give them the keys to understand the actual and futur stakes through a culture and environmental awareness.
She advocates as well for an innovating teaching fostering creativity and the development of skills and competencies. We are all unique and each one of us can add a piece to build our future.
Alexa is grateful to be part of this exiting and brave project and invite you to be part of it!
Aloïs Gallet
Co-founder of EcoNova
Aloïs is one of the two co-founders of EcoNova (with Alexa Camargo). Trained as a lawyer and economist, Aloïs became interested in environmental issues and their cultural underpinnings in 2007 during a student stay in Shanghai. A specialist in climate issues, he has worked in law firms, corporations, governments and non-profit organizations.
Aloïs is convinced that the ecological and social degradation caused by human development models that ignore planetary limits are, and will remain, the greatest challenges facing present and future generations. If we are to meet these ecological challenges in time, we must urgently promote the dissemination of knowledge and the training of free, critical, creative and cooperative minds. This is precisely what EcoNova and environmental literacy are all about. Since the first EcoNova project, Aloïs has been project manager, program manager, content creator, animator and trainer. He assumed the role of Executive Director in 2023. His involvement with Econova continues as a director.
Aloïs also expresses his vision as a carbon consultant and corporate trainer. He is a professional facilitator of the La Fresque du Climat tool. He is a member of the West Vancouver Environment Committee, where he has lived since 2023. He writes a column for the bilingual community newspaper. La Source. Il est élu Conseiller des Français de l’étranger depuis 2021 pour l’ouest Canadien. Profil disponible dans National Observer.
Sophie Robert
Coordinator of educational and ecological events
Sophie has lived in Vancouver since 2022. Originally from Mauritius, she studied law and worked in the City of London for many years. With a passion for cinema, she obtained a master's degree in film. Back in Mauritius, she decided to work on her own film projects as well as international productions. It's precisely through the locations she chooses for filming that she sees many of the island's landscapes spoiled by garbage. Awareness campaigns to protect the environment are therefore essential. This interest in continuing to act and influencing others to change their behavior for a healthier, more respectful environment continues to drive her.
