About my research
At its core, sustainability embodies a multifaceted concept that must be understood across various dimensions (social, environmental, technical, and economic), time and space scales, and stakeholders. As such, I advocate for research that is collaborative, inter- and transdisciplinary, impact-oriented, and centered around revitalizing our planet earth.
More precisely, I am eager to explore the connection between business activity and its impact on the ecological aspect of life, as well as to understand how circular strategies, both in biological and technical circles, can enable organizations to: (i) function within ecological boundaries, (ii) foster innovation in society, and (iii) promote economic prosperity.
