Ana comes from one of the biggest cities of South America: Rio, in Brazil. She is a bachelor student of Sustainable Agriculture at Hochschule Rhein-Waal. After studying Agricultural Engineering in Brazil, she felt the need to look deeper into the topic of sustainability in the food production chain, because she is eager to dive into the world of natural sciences and the socio-economic aspects surrounding them. As a student reporter, Ana is part of our blog team - she is responsible for capturing on camera the moments that will be written about in our blog.

Regarding her expectations during the event, Ana states that her major interest is to discover and engage with new projects happening worldwide and to get an inspirational overview of what is happening at the moment in her field of studies. She likes to learn and discuss topics such as sustainability, ecofeminism and climate-driven policy-making.

She has the camera as her main accessory this week and is looking forward to vehiculate to the world the amazing moments we will have at the Conference.

Jana Bauer is a master's student at the Universities of Göttingen and Kassel. She is starting her second year in Sustainable International Agriculture. In her spare time, she is trying to make the world a better place through her commitment in VUGA e.V., a NGO engaged political education, and WUO - a NGO working with Youth in Entebbe/Uganda. Before her Masters, she spent one year in Uganda, volunteering in a NGO which is tackling environmental and food issues in Western Uganda. Otherwise, she is very passionate about the topic of post-colonialism, zero waste and swimming.

At Tropentag 2019, Jana engages as a student reporter because she would like to approach the topic of sustainable resource management from a different perspective. She would like to learn more about transferring knowledge from science to the 'normal citizen'. She is interested in agroforestry, climate smart land use and participatory resource approaches. Student reporter means to her meeting new people, solving challenges, and working in an amazing team to find joint solutions.

During the Tropentag 2019 you'll see her running around and shooting photos, so don't miss out on meeting her!
