Water Experience
I am a young Brazilian woman, a Civil Engineer, a specialist in Geoprocessing, and a Ph.D. student in Environmental Systems Analysis and Modeling researching the interconnections between land use and land cover change, climate, and flood surface in the Pantanal, a wetland biome in Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay. I have experience in the water resources and sanitation field, both in the public and private sectors. I am involved with local and global communities working on youth, water, climate, and environmental issues, such as the Global Shapers, Water Youth Network, Youth Climate Leaders, and The Climate Reality Project. I was also a Youth Advisor and Peer Reviewer on the SIPRI Environment of Peace Initiative, a flagship project to showcase the interconnections between the environment and peace.
