Could you please introduce yourself?
My name is Cindy Vallée, I’m from Belgium and I work at HEPL. In UNIgreen, I’m the new Work Package 5 coordinator. I have been a speech therapist for 10 years. I specialize in the field of disability and learning disabilities. As a speech-language pathologist, my passion lies in helping people overcome communication challenges and achieve their full potential. Most of the training I have done is related to the field of disability but also the issue of gender.
I worked for the inclusion department at HEPL, which supports people with disabilities. I am excited about the possibility of joining the UNIgreen team and am committed to bringing my passion, skills and collaborative spirit to help achieve its goals.
Which added value or benefits of UNIgreen would you like to highlight, and why?
UNIgreen is a good example of what is currently happening in terms of ecological transition. Green practices are highlighted. Our school can become an example to follow in terms of “thinking and acting green”. Beyond the ecological and sustainable aspects, they included the aspects of inclusive and mixed education, which is a great asset for me. I’m inspired by Unigreen’s holistic approach, which integrates sustainable practices with a strong emphasis on diversity and inclusion.
Please tell us what UNIgreen means to you and use one word to describe it.
Environmental sustainability and social responsibility have always been at the core of my beliefs. UNIgreen’s mission to create a greener and more inclusive school / world aligns perfectly with my dedication to making a positive impact on both the environment and society.
