Moises Covarrubias 

Why did you join the ESG Network, and what motivated you to get involved?

I became a Research Fellow of the ESG Network because I recognized the increasing importance of improving the informing of policy and decision-making processes related to environmental change. The urgent need for knowledge brokering on sustainable governance practices motivated me to get involved in the ESG Network. As a research fellow, I strive to advance the knowledge at strengthening the interface between science, policy, and society in framing and solving environmental problems.

As a mentee of the 2023 Mentoring Initiative, what is the most valuable lesson you have learned?

In my current role as a CCUS and Decarbonization Policy researcher at the C4U project, I navigate complex interdisciplinary projects involving collaboration with multiple European countries and a diversity of stakeholders. As a mentee in the 2023 Mentoring Initiative, the most valuable lesson I have been looking to learn is how to engage with different societal actors, and stakes, to arrive at more effective and diversifying solutions to global environmental challenges.
