Ali Greenslade was born and raised in Alberta on the traditional lands of many Indigenous peoples in Treaty 6 territory, specifically Edmonton which has the North Saskatchewan River valley running though it. Growing up I spent lots of time in the river valley- and regularly walk my dog across the river from Fort Edmonton park. I now recognize that this area was home to many people before me, the Nehiyaw, Denesuline, Nakota Sioux, Anishinaabe, Nititsitapi and M\u00e9tis Nations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ali completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in Environmental Studies at the University of Alberta in 2017. After spending many years working in the hospitality industry and travelling around the world, I gained insights into communicating with people and building relationships. This continued in my role as a Climate Engagement Coordinator and Policy Analyst at the M\u00e9tis Nation of Alberta, where I have now worked for 1.5 years, while completing the Master of Art\u2019s in Climate Action Leadership program at Royal Roads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
