Based in:

As Policy and Advocacy Officer Climate and DRR, my role in Wetlands International – European Association includes the monitoring of the developments of EU policies on climate adaptation, DRR, CAP and other relevant public and private investments to identify potential risks for wetlands, both within the EU and in developing countries. I advocate for mainstreaming ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation approaches into EU policies and programmes. My work contributes to Wetlands International's overarching aim to improve the resilience of people through healthy wetland nature.
