About me

I am an Agricultural Engineer with an MSc in Climate Change and over 25 years of experience in project management, including European projects and international cooperation. Over the past five years, I have participated in and led the preparation of proposals for Horizon Europe, LIFE, INTERREG, and other European funding programmes focused on R&D&I in agriculture, energy, the environment, and climate change. I have also supported the coordination of several successful European projects in these thematic areas. Previously, I coordinated Economic Security programmes, primarily focused on Food Security and Livelihoods, for 20 years, leading multidisciplinary and multicultural teams across Africa, Asia, the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Latin America.

At the Institute for Biodiversity and the Environment (BIOMA) of the University of Navarra, I promote the development of European R&D&I projects by identifying funding opportunities, supporting consortium building, leading proposal development, and contributing to project coordination. I welcome opportunities to build partnerships for innovative solutions that contribute to sustainable agriculture, climate resilience, environmental protection, and the energy transition.
