Diego Barona

Diplomat and economist with experience in banking and financial industry in United States and Colombia. Member of the Embassy of Colombia in Canada, representing and promoting the Colombian agenda as cultural, and scientific attaché. My world goes from fashion shows to poetry, with love for music, racing, gastronomy, and writing. I believe in exploring the Arctic, and Antarctic in times of climate change, thinking that it holds a wonderful opportunity for all species, and humanity, with technologic transformations that will shape the future. During years I mixed professional career consulting world with photography, registering with my trusty camera the human landscape, metaphors, biodiversity, and nature in Europe, North America, and my native Colombia.
