Working towards a gender-equal Blue Economy

About

With an academic and professional background built in Europe and the Americas, I have shaped my career on environmental management, conservation and communication, with a specific focus and passion for the Ocean and Coasts.

I currently work as a Senior Project Manager for Sustainable Projects (s.Pro) and the SUBMARINER network, focusing on EU funded project coordination and proposal writing in the areas of blue economy, marine protected areas and boosting women's careers in the Blue Economy. I am also part of the management team at Surfrider Porto Chapter, focusing on ocean advocacy.

My organisation

The SUBMARINER Network brings together actors from the Baltic Sea Region and beyond to actively promote innovative and sustainable uses of marine resources for the dual priorities of protecting our marine ecosystems and promoting sustainable economic development. The Network connects authorities, research institutions, civil society, and private companies, integrating local perspectives into transnational frameworks.
