Next Up

Emily Beveridge is grateful to be part of the Next Up Ottawa 2013 cohort. From a very young age, she has been passionate about the environment and the human relationship to land. This passion has developed over time, and continues to guide her through her life. In May 2011, she graduated from Acadia University with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science, and after a year spent working with environmental NGOs operating both in Canada and abroad, she began studies in the fall of 2012 at the University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Law. She is committed to living according to her values and using her privilege to make the world a better place. As a Next Up participant, she is excited to learn new skills that will allow her to be a better environmental citizen and active community member.
