María Cassinello Toscano
I am a former research technician at LIVEN Lab, where I worked in the project “Ciencia ciudadana y sostenibilidad en el territorio de la B30” (CCS-B30). This is a citizen science project focusing on raising awareness of children and teenagers over the use of resources (water and organic waste) through educational projects and measuring the impact of these projects on the students. My work included, among other tasks, the collaboration with schools for the co-creation and management of the projects or the elaboration of formative content for teachers and the general public, available in Zenodo. I have a background in Law from the Carlos III University of Madrid and an MSc in Interdisciplinary Studies in Sustainability from UAB. I am particularly interested in combining research on sustainability issues with direct social changes expressed in tangible impacts. I enjoy playing music, dancing, reading and hiking.
