Martí Boada i Juncà (#3)

Martí Boada i Juncà (1949) is an environmental scientist, geographer, and president of the Board of Trustees of the La Rectoria Art Center Foundation, in Sant Pere de Vilamajor.

Martí Boada's pedagogical work in the field of environmental education began in 1978, with the launch of "Natura de Can Lleonart", in the Montseny Natural Park, one of the first experiences in environmental education in Catalonia.

Later he joined the Autonomous University of Barcelona as a professor and researcher. He is the co-author of more than forty books on thought and popularization. 

In 2014, he participated as an advisor in a research campaign in the Yasuní National Park (in the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador), in which more than two hundred scientists from twenty-six countries participated. Boada has been very critical of environmental policies, which do not devote enough effort to preventing natural disasters that climate change can cause, either from the territory itself or from international organizations.
