Work experience
Dr Patrick d’Aquino is Director of Research in social geography based in Senegal. For more than fifteen years he focused in Sahel on participatory approaches then participatory modelling tools (maps, GIS, multi agent modelling) in order to design novel co building foresights to support local organizations and social dynamics. He is especially interested in supports allowing people to progress in the inter-connection between local and global decision processes for a multi governance of dryland resources and mobility. He designed and managed a University Master in Participative Land Uses Management. Since 2002, he leads international exchanges (workshops, internet site…) on participatory approaches and their links to public policies (cf. multi level governance).
