Maria Magdalena’s career has always been within the environmental field. At 29, she has worked as a chemist in environmental laboratories and has studied in four countries. She graduated with a European M.Sc. in Environmental Technology and Management and currently she lives in Denmark. She enjoys traveling, meeting people from everywhere and speaking foreign languages. She would like to work with ideas in clean energy technologies which she foresees are the paths to a sustainable future, and in relating them to other parts of the world.  For sustainability can only be achieved if both north and south work together towards the same goal.
