Mariana Matija in conversation with Jorge Jaime Valdez

Habitar el mundo desde la ecología

Arequipa 2026, 
Mariana Matija (Colombia) is a creative communicator and researcher who explores alternative ways of relating to the Earth, its creatures and its cycles; she is also the author of Niñapájaroglaciar. With an approachable and reflective voice, she sets out a proposal for a conscious and harmonious relationship with nature, based on an everyday, accessible and achievable form of ecology that places the care of the planet at its heart, alongside the possibility of inhabiting the world in a more conscious and harmonious way.
