With no immediate plans for a Martian colony, Didier is committed to protecting our one-of-a-kind planet. Passionate about sustainability, he recognizes the responsibility of his generation to preserve Earth’s natural treasures for those who come after.

WATER EMISSARIES

As a founder and former president of the Water Emissaries, Didier played a pivotal role in establishing this Hawaii-based nonprofit. The organization is dedicated to addressing global water issues, promoting equitable access to environmental resources across gender, race, and culture, and inspiring the next generation to tackle pressing environmental challenges through innovation. Under Didier’s leadership, the Water Emissaries gained significant recognition, including an invitation to the 2023 UN Water Conference in New York City, where they contributed to discussions on global water sustainability.

THE MOVEMENT

While studying at Hult International Business School, Didier co-founded The Movement, an academic society focused on educating students about environmental issues and empowering them to take meaningful action. The Movement initiated several impactful projects, including the distribution of sustainable mugs and partnerships with local coffee shops like Starbucks and Parlor 1255 to promote eco-friendly habits. These collaborations encouraged students to bring reusable mugs, earning them discounts on their coffee orders while reducing waste on campus.

LEVELING UP RECYCLING

As a student, Didier participated in a data-driven initiative to enhance recycling efficiency at Hult International Business School. By analyzing over 1,000 data points on waste types, volumes, and behavioral trends, the project identified actionable improvements to campus recycling practices, fostering a culture of sustainability among students and staff.

ONE TREASURE ISLAND

During his time in San Francisco, Didier volunteered at Treasure Island, contributing to food distribution efforts for underprivileged communities. His responsibilities included unloading food deliveries, organizing equitable distributions, and engaging with recipients to create a welcoming and supportive environment.
