Work experience
I have been working on desertification since June 1996, for the PNUD project that deals on the elaboration and implementation of the national plan. Along this time I've been in charge of several tasks, such as prepare environmental diagnosis about the desertification susceptible areas in Brasil and local actions aimed at strong communities organization to combat desertification, including seminars, creation of discussion and action groups, and getting funds to specific actions. I've also been worked on administrative and financial issues.
