Summary

My water management skills and consulting experience have been fostered by eighteen years activities in higher education, in a number of institutions in the realm of environmental conservation, integrated water and energy management and sustainable agriculture development in Australia and Europe. In Australia I work for eight years in the role of senior environmental economist and lecturer (Murdoch University and Syrinx Ltd) as consultant for public policy evaluation and environmental program. These multi-disciplinary projects were focus on urban planning, land use management, water resource conservation and sustainable development initiative to minimize water use and water consumption for rural and residential areas, that included scoping, management and reporting of feasibility studies. In Europe I work as senior researcher for the University of Stockholm as senior researcher on environmental and sustainable water management developing market-based instruments to manage agriculture non point source pollution.
