Personal information

Science-Policy Interface, co-production of knowledge, resilience and adaptation to climate change, climate governance, glaciers and water governance and energy transitions

Biography

Researcher and consultant with fourteen years of experience working with interdisciplinary and international research teams in Latin America, North America and Europe. My research is focused on co-production of knowledge, the science-policy-society interface, and governance in areas such as adaptation and resilience to climate change, and glacier, water and energy fields. In these topics, I have a strong knowledge, and experience using qualitative research methods such as interviews, focus groups, participatory and deliberative workshops, developing innovative ad hoc instruments, and analysing and assessing large data sets. Focused in public policy, I have held experience in collaborating, advising and assessing policy-making. Focused in energy, I have been participating and studying the Chilean energy transition for the past seven years, and have been part of the Energy Poverty Network (RedPe) for the past two years.
