About

I have over 25 years' experience in agriculture, food systems, sustainable development, pesticides and crop science, economic governance and crime prevention, human labour and public health and safety challenges. I have managed and implemented global campaigns, (risk) communications and project activities. I have led media activities and corporate reporting. Much of my work has focused on scientific and regulatory areas with a solid experience in corporate responsibility and stakeholder relations in the United Nations and the European Union. I have over 13 years' experience in leading departments at a senior level and managing the corresponding budgets and programme activities. I am perfectly fluent in English, French and Spanish with a very high level in German and Italian.
