Dr. Mariachiara Alberton (PhD in Law and economics, University of Siena, 2007) is a senior researcher in Environmental Law at the Institute for Comparative Federalism, Eurac Research. Her research focuses on the multi-level governance of the environment and climate change. She investigates in particular how intergovernmental arrangements and dynamics at multiple levels (supranational, national, subnational) enable or hinder environmental protection, participatory processes, and the transition and transformation processes toward sustainability and climate resilience. She is the author of several books and peer-reviewed publications on different environmental topics, such as climate change, environmental impact assessment, public participation in environmental decision-making, water, biodiversity, environmental liability. Through the years she has coordinated and participated to several international and national funded projects on the same topics.
