Lucas joined the ClimHB team in November 2020 as field coordinator, based in Dhaka. He graduated with a Master in Development Economics from the University of Bordeaux. After several internships in Latin America in the French bilateral cooperation, he worked for almost a year at Action Against Hunger in Dakar, mainly on programs to prevent and tackle malnutrition in West Africa. He will support the country’s research teams in the organization of the qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis phase at the study site, as well as in promoting the ClimHB results. He was in Bangladesh from June 2021 to July 2023 and will be based at BRAC James P Grant School of public health’s office.
In his spare time, he enjoys cooking, learning photography, and exploring Dhaka with his camera. He struggles not to become addicted to the ‘mishti’ of Bangladesh.
