  In 2010 I received a PhD scholarship at Curtin Sustainability Policy Institue in Fremantle, Australia)and have been working on an Australian Research Council(ARC)Linkage project: 'Decarbonising Cities and Regions'. My research focuses on distributed green infrastructure strategies (including governance) and technologies for reducing carbon emissions in new urban development. The practical component requires developing a framework and applying it to case studies of low carbon urban development in Western Australia. Previously from 2004-2008, I worked with UNESCO, World Heritage Centre and Ecological and Earth Sciences dept. in Paris as a Programme Specialist. This involved providing advisory and technical expertise to assist countries in technical cooperation projects, including climate change mitigation/adaptation strategies, and sustainable development initiatives for World Heritage Sites, Biosphere Reserves and surrounding communities. My work also required collaborating with an international consortium of partners to provide space derived products (satellite imagery, GIS maps, radar technology) to assist countries with management of sites, including assessment of climate change impacts. My academic backround includes a Bachelor of Arts (Literature, Anthropology), Master of Arts and a Master of Science in Environmental Science. Less
