Biography

 

Ujunwa Okeke is an international student from Nigeria where she received her B.Sc in Geography and Meteorology in the prestigious University of Nnamdi Azikwe University in Nigeria. She also did a research on modelling climate change and sea level rise using GIS before she completed her undergraduate study. She showed how climate change leads to flooding and causes a lot of damage to people, destroying their business and oftentimes displacing them from their homes in West Africa(Nigeria).As a graduate student, she wants to gain more insight in communicating environmental issues, particularly climate change, to the public, especially those that do not have formal education and the youth at large.

She will love to work in corporate company and be an advocate for environmental awareness and possibly have a non profit organisation that will disseminate information notwithstanding the social background or class of a person.
