Dhali

I am working as a Senior Technical Advisor in German Development Cooperation (GIZ) in Bangladesh. Over the last 10 years I am supporting GIZ’s technical cooperation projects with Bangladesh Forest Department (BFD) in the field of Natural Resource Management. I am working in the Bangladesh Sundarbans since 2014 and have extensive knowledge and ideas about different aspects of this unique mangrove ecosystem including major conservation challenges.

Before joining GIZ, I have also served in the Bangladesh Forest Department and few national and local NGOs in Bangladesh. I studied Forestry from Khulna University Bangladesh. I am also a DAAD scholar and earned a Post Graduate degree in Tropical Forestry from Technical University of Dresden, Germany.
