Juana Muñoz Ucrós

In my role, I oversee Root Capital’s global network of agronomic and climate resilience advisors as we help rural communities mitigate and adapt to climate change. I first heard of Root Capital while working with a collective of coffee farmers in my home country of Colombia. Since then, I’ve admired the company’s mission and work in partnering with smallholder agricultural businesses to drive meaningful impact. With degrees in biology, ecology, and horticulture, I’m excited to bring my scientific background and critical thinking skills to boost Root Capital’s climate resilience work through capacity building. My passion for the environment goes beyond work and outside of the office you can find me hiking with my dog or cooking food I’ve grown myself.
