Mission & Interests
Goals: As a senior scientific advisor, author, and university lecturer, I am currently engaged with clients in Europe, South Asia, and the Middle East working on UN, EU, and World Bank-funded projects at advisory, technical supervisory, and training/capacity-building levels.
The scope of the involved thematic areas covers critical infrastructure climate resilience, decision analysis and preference elicitation, urban disaster risk management, transport asset management, sustainable construction, hazard and climate change risk assessment, and climate innovation for adaptation. The goal is to contribute in increasing resilience of critical infrastructures and sociotechnical systems against climate change and natural or sociocultural hazards, through publications, and being invited to Commission expert groups
