Join us to discover the story of Cora McGarry, a 19 year old business and hospitality student. Cora’s participation in one of Geneva’s climate strikes inspired her father, Peter McGarry, an Irish entrepreneur, investor and extreme runner, to create The Earth Prize, a USD 200,000 annual sustainability competition for teenage students around the world.
