Presentation of a project you are working on 1/3 The institutional design for the provincial Governance of Climate Change . Under development since April, 2018. I am currently taking part in the research team of the project entitled The institutional design for the provincial Governance of Climate Change. This project aims to provide the province of Santa Fe (Argentina) with a Climate Change Law, a mechanism for consultation and participation of relevant stakeholders, a strategy for mitigation and adaptation to climate change and, a proposal for an institutional structure to adequately respond to the challenge of climate change. We are in the final phase of the project. In fact, in October it will be presented to different relevant stakeholders and a period for receiving opinions and suggestions will be opened.
Presentation of a project you are working on 2/3 Projecto to monitor the Argentina climate change policy at different levels. Since March, 2020. I am a member of a group of experts in climate change that execute this project. Its objective is to collect and systematize information and produce new knowledge about the situation of Argentina's climate change policy at the national and sub-national levels. The project is in the initial phase. We hope for the next year to find financing and launch a website and an app for smartphones. This would provide quick information to different actors (experts, researchers, NGOs, local communities, etc.).
Presentation of a project you are working on 3/3 PhD thesis named: Climate change and forests: linkages and conditioning factors of Argentina, Bolivia and Brazil regarding REDD + between 2007 and 2019 . I currently have a grant from the National Scientific and Technical Research Council of Argentina (CONICET) for the development of my thesis project about forests, and climate change in Argentina, Bolivia, and Brazil. These countries have major challenges with regard to AFOLU (Agriculture, Forest and Land Use) sector. In particular, I analyze the position of these South American countries regarding international negotiations on the REDD+ mechanism within the framework of the United Nations Convention on Climate Change.
