With over nine years of experience in climate and biodiversity financing, I am passionate about creating positive environmental and socio-economic impacts through sustainable solutions. In 2011, I started working in the infrastructure project development sector and subsequently finished my PhD in Infrastructure Project Financing from the Queensland University of Technology, Australia. Afterward, I started applying my infrastructure project development experience in climate financing project development. I have project preparation experience for the Green Climate Fund (GCF), Adaptation Fund (AF), and Global Environment Facility (GEF).As a freelance consultant for several clients, I contribute to different project preparation processes. Currently, I am supporting the development of a GCF funding proposal for a climate-resilient agriculture project in the Philippines and providing advisory services to UNDP for developing an urban resilience project for GEF funding in Bhutan. As a Public-Private Partnership Consultant for the Netherlands Enterprise Agency, I am currently exploring the opportunities and processes to establish Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects in Bangladesh's water sector. I am also designing the incentive structure for promoting biodiversity stewardship in Mauritius for an EU-funded project. As a consultant, my ability to work across different advisory segments stems from my diverse work and educational background. I was born in Bangladesh and later studied in Australia. My dual citizenship in Australia and Bangladesh has allowed me to work in several countries, such as Bangladesh, Australia, Bhutan, the Philippines, Mauritius, and Lebanon. My experiences in these countries have taught me to tackle complex project challenges, collaborate with stakeholders, and deliver successful client outcomes.I have a track record of successfully implementing advisory projects for renowned clients, including USAID, FCDO, the Netherlands Embassy, UNDP, GAIN, and SNV. In the last nine years of my advisory career, addressing my clients' challenges has been my utmost priority. To achieve this, I have worked in diverse roles, including Public-Private Partnership Consultant, Natural Resources Economist, Financial Expert, International Adaptation Expert, Market System Consultant, Researcher, and Biodiversity Financing Consultant. While working in such diverse roles is difficult, I have always been willing to take on different project roles to support my team.
