Noa
Biologist and PhD in biodiversity and conservation. With over seven years of experience, I have successfully managed 14 regional, national, and international projects. These include initiatives funded by the Asturias Government, Fundación Biodiversidad, FECYT, Ecoembes-SEO, Fundación Príncipe Alberto de Mónaco, the Spanish Ministry, and programs like LIFE, Creative Europe, COSME, and IUCN. Over the past three years, I have also been involved in drafting proposals for national, European, and international projects, collaborating with associations, private companies, territorial authorities, and research institutes. My expertise includes project proposal drafting, producing technical documents and reports, designing nature conservation strategies, training & public participation, fieldwork, and research.

In addition to my background in nature conservation, I have extensive experience in project management, event planning, training, international cooperation, rural revitalization, local participation, and developing local policies and collaborating with public administration.
Currently, I collaborate with various entities, including Fundación Oso de Asturias, Corripa, and Amigos de Doñana, focusing on biodiversity, rural revitalization, environmental sustainability, research, and environmental protection. Additionally, I work with the association Interruris and the SME Rural Consulting, both specializing in rural and social innovation, arts and crafts, education and training, local engagement and support, cultural heritage, and sustainable tourism. I also maintain connections with international public entities in North and South America and Africa.
My eclectic trajectory includes roles such as Knowledge Expedition Leader with the British Exploring Society, managing international conservation projects related to big cats in South America and brown bears in Europe, and being part of the HomewardBound team for women with STEMM backgrounds. I have also participated in sustainable tourism activities in Australia and Spain and collaborated on training activities, stakeholder engagement, cultural and heritage preservation, and organizing artistic events and festivals.
In 2024, I began working as an independent consultant, aiming to apply the diverse knowledge and skills I have acquired over the years to the design, preparation, and management of EU projects. I believe that combining nature conservation and biodiversity with sustainability, culture, arts, and heritage, as well as engaging stakeholders from various sectors, is key to developing successful projects.
I am eager to share my expertise and collaborate with highly motivated partners who believe in the broad spectrum of sustainability.
