Über mich

Biologist and MSc. in Natural Resources Management and Development with 5+ years experience in climate change, international cooperation, biodiversity, NDCs, among others. In the last years, I was involved in the conception, planning, implementation and monitoring of projects which contribute to biodiversity conservation, sustainable use of biodiversity, climate change institutionalization and agricultural insurances in Peru. I am convinced that incorporating nature and natural resources to different discussions is key to find appropriate solutions to the challenges that society faces.
