Research Student

I specialise in Latin American development with a professional background in energy, diplomacy, public procurement, and oceanography, underscoring a diverse and interdisciplinary approach to development challenges. I have accumulated international experience, having closely collaborated with government agencies in South Korea and across Latin America. I am passionate about promoting sustainable development in rural areas, aiming to enhance the livelihoods of Indigenous and peasant communities through ecologically sound agricultural practices. My work is driven by a desire to understand and address the complex dynamics that shape rural development and to promote policies that support sustainable and inclusive development in Latin America.
