Biography
Dr. Diana Tuomasjukka is a Senior Researcher at the Sustainability and Climate Change unit at EFI and Coordinator of TMUG (ToSIA Management and User Group). Presently, she works on two EU FP7-project, assessing sustainability impacts (SIA) in innovative bioenergy forest-wood-chain (INFRES) and of environmental services and natural capital in landuse applications (OPERAS). Dr Tuomasjukka has been working in various EU-projects based in Germany, Sweden and Finland mainly in the context of SIA since 2005. She has a background in practical application of sustainability impact assessments, indicator development, participatory processes and decision support system development, business process modelling and systems analysis, as well as in forest technology, logistics and forest management. Training and user support in the practical application of SIA, and developing user-friendly methodologies and guidance materials are part of her daily work. She is currently working on cross-sectoral forest-wood-chain modelling at EU and global level, whose assessment is based on an indicator approach covering economic, environmental, social and cultural aspects, as well as CSR (corporate social responsibility).
