My organization,
the Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe (REC;
Szentendre, Hungary, www.rec.org) is a core member of the Sustainable Development
Communications Network (SDCN), a global knowlege network on sustainable
development (sdgateway.net/project.htm). One of my current tasks in this
network is to set up an on-line module on sustainable cities. The project
is carried out as a collaborative work among different NGOs and organizations
all across the world, such as the International Institute for Sustainable
Development (Canada), Development Alternatives (India), ENDA (Senegal),
Stockholm Environment Institute (Sweden), FARN (Argentina).
As you can see from
my past engagements above my professional interests lie with networking
and the environment. I support the interdisciplinary approach to problem
solving – therefore I am open to becoming involved with other areas. After
all, the environment and electronic networks effect almost everything in
our modern lives… |
