Gabriel Păun appointed honorary adviser to the prime minister

He has campaigned for nature and animals for 19 years, both in Romania, his native country, and in other countries on every continent. Before taking up this struggle, he studied biology, ecology, environmental protection and ecotourism.

As of yesterday, he has also been granted the role of honorary adviser to the prime minister. The advisory work is unpaid, involves no affiliation to a political party and will cover environmental protection, animal protection and sustainable agriculture. Gabriel Păun will continue to represent both the Romanian environmental organisation Agent Green, which he founded in 2009, and the international organisation Animals International, as Director for Europe.

“I was honoured to accept the prime minister’s invitation to serve Romania’s natural heritage as an honorary adviser. I have had only positive experiences in consultations with Mr Florin Cîțu since he was a senator, and I thank him for his trust. I am optimistic that I will be able to use my education and experience so that the Government’s future measures bring Romania closer to a place where people prosper while treating nature with empathy and respect, coexist peacefully with all natural forms of life and have reached the level of awareness needed to keep water, air and soil clean for future generations. I will remain just as uncompromising in all my work and loyal to nature, animals and people,” said Gabriel Păun after being granted the title of Honorary Adviser to the prime minister.
