Biography
My research contributes to the study of modes of environmental governance and their relationship with sustainable development. I have carried out projects on water governance, flood risk governance, knowledge co-creation in regional climate adaptation projects, relationships between water companies and consumers and on innovation in wastewater management systems in a Western context. As coordinator and contributor, I am involved in BSc and MSc level courses, including: Environmental Policy Evaluation and Design (2nd year bachelor; coordinator); Sustainable Land Use (3rd year bachelor), Bachelor thesis Environmental Social Sciences (supervisor and coordinator); Master thesis Sustainable Development (supervisor); Research Design (Masters).
