Alexander Kouzminov, Senior Policy Advisor - Water Policy at Waikato Regional Council
About
I am a highly qualified and experienced environmental specialist (special focus on water and ecology), with over 30 years of commendable track-record in: developing policies and strategies, developing and managing projects and programmes, science research and analysis; the ability to apply technical/scientific and business skills to work processes to manage projects and inter-agencies and cross-sectoral programmes and resolve complex issues, having a good record in providing effective solutions.
I have extensive track record of work in central and local government and private sector as a senior policy advisor, senior analyst, senior environmental scientist, director, chief-executive.
I've contributed to a number of environmental policy papers (within New Zealand and internationally) e.g. current New Zealand Drinking Water Standards, UNESCO water policy forums, among others.
I'm very enthusiastic about water, ecology and environmental health and its impacts on the human as well as natural environmental subjects, and am always looking for opportunities to extend my network and share my experiences.
