Created in 2016, CCIF Cyprus supports education and research for social inclusion of all citizens, including youth with fewer opportunities, disabilities and immigrants. Our purpose is to provide an enabling space to people from inauspicious environments and equip them with necessary digital skills to access today’s labour market, while increasing their chances at an equal treatment. At CCIF Cyprus, we try to fuel the dialogue between local communities to address the different fears many have, as we deem it a necessary step to build an inclusive and peaceful society. We have made it our goal to help communities understand that despite the difference in the manifested speech one might hold, the underlying values and feelings are not only equally valid, but also very often the same, in an attempt to connect groups with – and help them relate to – each other.
We are heavily involved in the integration process of immigrants in Pafos, offering them several times a week Greek, English, computer literacy classes, as well as drama classes and sport, so that they can develop their skills and capacity of expression. CCIF Cyprus helped immigrants and refugees learn languages to be better positioned not only to find work, but also to better communicate with their Cypriot counterparts for which sometimes different or foreign can seem rather threatening.
I am a biologist (M.Sc. & PhD) and have been working with nature conservation, environment and climate change in Latin America and Africa for 30 years. I have been involved in numerous projects supporting circular, low carbon and climate resilient societies. They include capacity building of environmental authorities (Bolivia, Lesotho), climate smart coffee production (Uganda), greening of agricultural value chains (Tanzania, Kenya), watershed management (Kenya, Bolivia, Botswana), solar and wind farm development (Bolivia, Taiwan), management of non-timber forest products (Ecuador) as well as programming, reviews and evaluations (Peru, Costa Rica, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Thailand, Malawi).
An important part of my work the last 10 years has been implementation of learning programmes and study tours with participants from Danida partner countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The programmes focus on mainstreaming environmental sustainability across sectors, and include Green Growth, Climate Change, Natural Resources Management and Disaster Risk Reduction.
Privately I am engaged in many related activities: I have a small organic farm, I am a local board member of the Danish Society for Nature Conversation, I am active with “greening” activities (e.g. energy and waste issues) in my village, and I have been appointed member of a "Committee on the sustainable and circular municipality", tasked with providing advice for our municipal council.
