María Mejía

Bogotá

A bio-disperse profile and a committed heart to listen, reflect and design collaborative networks that put biodiversity at the core of our work. I hold a Double Major in Economics and Political Science. Following one of my life passions I did a Minor in Architecture and Cities and a MSc. Global Ecological Change. From Bogotá, to Medellín, Manila, Berlin and now Nairobi, I keep expanding my knowledge on how to enable systemic change to achieve more biodiverse, just and healthy cities. Conspirator of Urban Nature: Platform of Experiences (2016), BiodiverCities by 2030: Transforming Cities with Biodiversity (2022) and Ciudad Humedal para América Latina y el Caribe (2025). Friend of TNOC since 2013. I love chocolate, dark skies, films, music and currently doing my best to keep up with hot yoga. Maria is TNOC’s Regional Curator for LATAM.
