Discover why Yara Ghrewati is a hit with teachers and students attending our Earth Summit

Yara Ghrewati is not just an outdoor educator; she embodies the connection between nature, climate advocacy, and transformative learning. As the founder of Wildeye Adventures, a company dedicated to wilderness education, bushcraft, survival skills, forest bathing, and environmental awareness, she has forged a unique path that brings environmental stewardship to life.

Nature immersion with purpose

At Wildeye, Yara designs immersive programs for individuals, families, and teams, harnessing the healing and educational potential of forests and the outdoors. Her offerings, from bushcraft courses to creative woodland retreats, centre on fostering a deep relationship with nature,  something she sees as fundamental to personal and planetary well-being.

Amplifying community through radio

Yara is also a passionate broadcaster. She established and presented the Environment & Conservation Show on UK Health Radio for several years, drawing links between humanity and nature with the belief: “Humans are nature. What we do to nature, we do to ourselves.”

Alongside co-presenter Yasmin Dahnoun, Yara interviewed a wide-ranging roster of environmentalists, educators, farmers, indigenous advocates, restoration leaders, and conservationists - giving voice to grassroots initiatives and solutions rooted in community and indigenous knowledge.

Why Yara Ghrewati resonates as a spokesperson

1. She bridges practice with messaging
Yara doesn't just speak about connection, she lives it. Through hands-on wilderness programs, she helps people physically and emotionally re-engage with the natural world, grounding her climate advocacy in lived experience.

2. She elevates diverse voices
Her radio show shone a spotlight on often-overlooked wisdom. From indigenous traditions to local conservation efforts, expanding the climate conversation beyond mainstream narratives and fostering inclusivity.

3. She merges mind, body, and planet
Wildeye’s programs underscore that environmental education is not merely intellectual - it’s deeply sensory and experiential. This integrated approach strengthens emotional investment in nature and nurtures a stewardship mindset.

4. She strengthens resilience and empowerment
Bushcraft skills teach resilience and adaptability - traits essential in an era of climate uncertainty. Yara positions these not just as survival tools, but as avenues for personal growth, mental well-being, and collective empowerment.

5. She builds community around environmental care
Her radio platform and programming created spaces where communities could learn, share, and act together. In doing so, she fostered social connection, collective responsibility, and intergenerational learning; a powerful antidote to environmental disconnection.

Final thoughts

In a world grappling with climate anxiety, Yara Ghrewati stands out as a spokesperson who combines action, awareness, and authenticity. She offers more than messages because she builds embodied experiences, platforms for diverse voices, and paths toward resilience. Her work reminds us that to change how we treat the Earth, we must first heal our own relationship with it.

Yara’s work with Wildeye Adventures is hands-on, immersive, and highly adaptable for young learners. Instead of abstract lectures, she engages students through bushcraft, survival skills, and forest-based learning. This turns climate change from a distant issue into something students can see, feel, and experience in their local environment. 

We are both privileged and excited to welcome her back to the Earth Summit in 2026: bring your students and experience her passion and knowledge for yourselves.
