Climate Protection Manager | Germany

Ilaria De Altin is intrigued by creative problem-solving and fascinated by challenges. These are qualities that proved exceptionally useful during her 20+ years working towards climate protection at the local level. She has held roles with ICLEI Local Government for Sustainability and more recently as Climate Protection Manager for the City of Freiburg. As a results-oriented manager, trainer, and change-agent, Ilaria holds extensive experience in climate protection, capacity building, and intercultural communication. In her day-to-day, she designs, facilitates, and moderates workshops, seminars, and capacity building activities. She advocates for communication about climate protection and sustainability, partners’ involvement and motivation, sound planning, and climate protection concepts. And Ilaria facilitates the transfer of best practices and the adaption of learned lessons to diverse environments. Being multi-lingual, Ilaria is perfectly placed for her work as an interpreter for a variety of social entities. This ties in closely with her political activism, where she is committed to the fight for voting rights for all EU residents, regardless of their status or passport.
