Earlier in her career, she was a lead education specialist at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) for over 12 years (2003-2015), where she was responsible for leading, designing, and implementing education projects and programs across Latin America, conducting research and analysis to improve educational outcomes, and continuously engaging in policy dialogue with authorities and stakeholders to promote better education policies. She was based in Mexico from 2008 to 2014 and Jamaica from 2014 to 2015. Before joining IDB, she served as the director general of school organization at the National Ministry of Education in Colombia and was also co-director of the Center for the Support of Women and Families in Colombia.

From 2018 to 2024, she served as UNESCO Director of the Regional Office for Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (OREALC in Spanish), and the representative in Chile. In these roles, she led initiatives to advance the UN Sustainable Development agenda in Latin America, particularly SDG4, to promote quality and equitable education and lifelong learning in the region.

She has collaborated with organizations like the World Bank and UNICEF, and various governments and institutions globally, most recently with Mexico’s National Institute for the Evaluation of Education (INEE).

radio_button_unchecked radio_button_checked

Overview

Dr. Rob Roggema taught as Professor of Landscape-driven Design and Sustainable Urban Environments at the lnholland and Hanze Universities of Applied Sciences, in the Netherlands, and the University of Technology Sydney, in Australia. He is Visiting Professor in Landscape Urbanism at Queen’s University Belfast, in Northern Ireland; Distinguished Visiting Professor at Western Sydney University, in Australia; and Distinguished Global Professor at KEIO University, in Japan.

He is Director of Cittaideale, an office in adaptive design, spatial planning, and design research for regenerative urban environments and landscapes. Some of the design concepts he has developed are ‘FoodRoofRio’, a rooftop garden with an aquaponic system that provided food for families in the Cantagalo favela at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and Nature Rich Netherlands, a national plan to transform the Dutch land use into 50% nature, whilst solving problems related to climate change impacts, nitrogen deposition, and housing. For his Ph.D., he developed the Swarm Planning concept, a new method for planning and responding to climate adaptation and spatial design.

Dr. Roggema’s research interests are to create innovative spatial solutions for regenerative urban landscapes. He has led over 40 design charrettes in the Netherlands, Japan, Mongolia, China, Jordan, India, Australia, and New Zealand, involving communities, academics, governments, and industries in the design process.

He is Series Editor at Contemporary Urban Design Thinking, Springer. In addition, he has collaborated as an academic reviewer for journals such as Urban Forestry and Urban Greening; European Planning Studies; Environment and Planning B; and the Journal of Sustainable Development, to name a few.

Professor Rob was a keynote speaker at the Ecocity World Summit 2022 in Rotterdam, Netherlands; at the third edition of the international conferences on “Resilient and Responsible Architecture and Urbanism” from IEREK: Research and Knowledge Enrichment, in Alexandria, Egypt; among many others. Also, he has been an academic guest lecturer worldwide across Europe, Australia, and Asia.

He was rewarded a ‘Rubicon’ grant by the Dutch Research Council (NWO), in the Netherlands (2012); he also received the Honorary Mention at the Rising Tides Design Competition (2009) from the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC); he won the scientific award for ‘Best theoretical paper’ at the World Sustainable Building Conference, in Melbourne, Australia (2008), for his Swarm Planning concept.
