Introduce yourself

Hello everyone,

I'm Jorge Vallego. I’m working on the H4rmony project, which seeks to bridge ecological values with AI development by creating AI models that emphasize sustainability, ecocentrism, and social justice. I'm also helping to establish regional ecolinguistics associations in Latin America to promote collaboration and research in ecolinguistics, and I serve as a subject representative in AI and Large Language Models for the IEA.

If you're interested in learning more about the H4rmony project or would like to discuss ecolinguistics initiatives in Latin America, please feel free to reach out. I’m looking forward to connecting with you all.

Warm regards,

Jorge

Hello everybody! 

My name is Alena Soloshenko, a linguist in love with Nature. I’m a researcher in ecolinguistics and cognitive linguistics at the University Paris 8 Vincennes - Saint-Denis, France. 

My projects focus on the triad of language, cognition, and emotion in the context of well-being and the restorative properties of nature. I’m currently exploring water metaphors and I will soon embark on a project about the role of emotional engagement through nature immersion in digital storytelling.

You can find me here: ORCiD and my Substack, where I explore the themes of nature appreciation and everyday aesthetics.

Hi there,

My name is Peter Hourdequin. I'm an ecolinguistic researcher and university instructor working in Shizuoka, Japan. Among other things, I am interested in board games and their varying ecological narratives.

I'm eager to connect and collaborate with likeminded researchers in this field.
