Manuela Ruiz Reyes
“Resilience is also about scale and it is always immersed in power dynamics. Let’s keep that in mind to face the challenges and to seek our long-lasting impacts.”
Manuela Ruiz Reyes is a Colombian ecologist (BS), geographer (MA and PhD) and mother. Her main professional and academic interests are in the intersections of socio-ecological systems, participatory conservation in complex scenarios and conflict zones (given that in Colombia everything is complex and surrounded by conflict!), multi scalar, actor diverse projects and programs, and feminist political ecology approaches. She’s been lucky to study and work in and for some of the most culturally and life diverse places in the world: the humid, tropical Andes and the Amazon basin.
