Carlotta Fontana

Research Project Manager

I’m an architect and strategic urban designer with a deep commitment to spatial and climate justice. My journey began with a bachelor’s degree in Architecture from the University of Venice and continued with a master’s in Development Urban Planning from University College London. Over the past decade, I’ve worked on large-scale urban projects in France, focused on transport hubs, and partnered with NGOs in Peru, Colombia, and Indonesia to tackle urban climate change adaptation and mitigation.

Recently, I’ve been immersed in European research projects, collaborating with cities, municipalities, and consortium partners to craft, implement, and finance strategies for sustainable and equitable urban environments. My expertise spans project management, design, and implementation of tools for knowledge-sharing, and fostering transdisciplinary collaboration among diverse stakeholders. I’m passionate about collaborative governance, democratic practices for social and climate justice, and testing innovative strategies to create more resilient and just places.
