Community Mediation

Teams and communities committed to environmental care. 

Empathy, creativity and responsibility are essential aspects to address the complex scenarios posed by climate change. I work from tools that come from visual arts, project management (PM / Agile) and collaborative games.

Imagination and new sensi-bilities are the fertilizer for the processes I encourage, based on 15 years of experience in managing collaborative projects. Let’s commit to continuous learning. Let’s make the future we desire possible.

How do we move from vision to action?

Creative consulting supports individuals, communities, and institutions in their transition processes toward actions committed to the real and effective care of the environment.
