Juan Lazo Bautista, 2018 EMI Student Panelist
Meet Juan Lazo Bautista, Educate Motivate Innovate (EMI) panelist at the 2018 National Environmental Justice Conference.
Juan Lazo Bautista
Juan grew up in a modern immigrant family from Oaxaca, Mexico. As a newcomer to conservation, Juan was met with a field that did not reflect his own unconventional experiences. Fortunately, he has been embraced by leaders who are open to listen, eager to learn and humble enough to adjust. As the conservation landscape becomes wider and more diverse, tapping into the unique potential of individual experience is key. Experiencing this has empowered him to fully express himself in the leadership capacity he now serves in.
