Dana Ahmad: Founder Of EcoSpectrum, A Project For Autistic Youth To Take Part In Ocean Conservation Discussions

Odyssey Global Media is looking forward to releasing the interview with the Founder of EcoSpectrum - that aims to elevate the inclusivity of students and youth within the spectrum of autism in climate action and ocean conservation discussions.

  As a climate and ocean advocate, Dana is passionate about the members most affected by the lack of urgency in the ocean crisis, especially those on the spectrum of Autism, and has thus founded EcoSpectrum.    Dana is a passionate Law and Politics student involved in youth participation, accessible education, and ocean preservation matters. She has attained the International Baccalaureate Diploma and studied Environmental Systems and Societies, and Global Politics higher level whilst researching the correlation between ocean waste production and gender and the role of youth in promoting climate action and its impact on achieving the SDGs.   She's a member of IRENA’s Youth Forum and was a youth delegate and council member in the ninth and tenth IRENA assembly session in 2020, which stressed the global energy transition, green hydrogen, and youth participation in decision and policymaking. She's Egypt’s representative at World Ocean Day, and an Arctic Ice Force Hub Leader. Additionally, she has been appointed as Secretary and Representative of Egypt at the Sustainable Ocean Alliance Youth Policy Advisory Council.
