LOMBARI

I am a natural resources management specialist with five years of experience at the intersection of climate change, food security, agriculture, and international cooperation. I have worked with NGOs, UN FAO (in Moldova and Hungary), and currently serve as Environmental Expert within the AMAZONÍA+ programme at the Italian Development Cooperation Agency (AICS), an initiative funded by the EU and the Global Gateway.

Working across Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and Latin America has also meant working across languages such as: Italian, English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese.

This cross-regional background has shaped my understanding of how knowledge-sharing tools can, and often don't, reach the people who need them most. As a Capacity4dev Ambassador, I believe platforms like this one hold real potential, but only if practitioners actually integrate them into their daily work. My goal is to make Capacity4dev feel less like another tool lost in the void, and more like a living resource: concrete, accessible, and genuinely useful for the international cooperation community.
