About Julia Ruff

Julia Ruff is a master student of the Global Studies Programme, a joint-degree of the University of Freiburg (Germany), University of Cape Town (South Africa) and the Chulalongkorn University (Thailand).

She focused her research on the management of natural resources and more particularly on that of food systems, analysing the practices of agribusinesses, philanthropic organizations and governmental initiatives from the perspective of Political Ecology.

Based on her research results and personal experiences, she shifted her interest from Green Economy and Green Finance towards Regenerative Landscaping and therewith, to Agroforestry.
