Switzerland
I am a researcher at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI), working on climate strategies, urban processes, climate justice, just transition, and planetary urbanisation. My research engages critically with the social and political dimensions of climate governance, with particular attention to urban inequalities, institutional change, and the territorial effects of sustainability transitions. I am especially interested in how climate action is shaped by uneven power relations and how justice-oriented frameworks can inform more inclusive urban and regional policies. In my past position at the Municipality of Santorso I coordinated several projects and activities that involved local, regional and national public authorities, representing the Municipality at different negotiating levels. I was also in charge of the Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP) and responsible of different initiatives aimed to promote active participation of the local communities. One of the activities I promoted in order to engage citizens on energy sustainability issues has been selected as one of the finalists of the European Sustainable Energy Awards (EUSEW) in 2017.
