Mon Escobedo

Aaniin, hello, hola!

My name is Mon Escobedo. I’m from Mexico and I just finished my masters in Sustainability Studies this past December. I worked with TRACKS last year as an evaluation intern and I’m so excited to be a part of the TRACKS team again, now as a Resource Development and Evaluation Lead.

As an immigrant in Canada, I believe in learning and understanding the history of the place, and the responsibilities that come with being an uninvited guest on this land. Through TRACKS I’ve been able to see how important it is to teach children different types of sciences and knowledges, so that they are open to diverse knowledges and not only the science they learn at school.

I am also passionate about our connection with the environment and how nature helps our physical, emotional and mental health. I love walking in nature, hiking and camping, it always makes me feel more centered.
