Mauricio SANTAMARIA
Project Manager, Tropical Forest Foundation -Oroverde-
I am an agricultural scientist with a focus on international agricultural sciences and agroecology, which I studied at the Humboldt University in Berlin.
Immediately after my studies, I worked with a Danish-Portuguese NGO in Guinea-Bissau for 4 years in the field of environmental education and sustainable agriculture. From there, I went to Guatemala and Belize for 8 years with the German Development Service (DED) and GIZ. In these countries, I work on the topic of agroecology in connection with the sustainable use and protection of the Selva Maya and the natural resources there.
For the past two years, I have been a consultant for international projects at the Tropical Forest Foundation -OroVerde-.
