2020: The Year of Living Vicariously #2 (Presentation by the World Farmers Organisation)

This webinar series has been created to provide learnings for Nuffield Scholars from around the world. Hear from Ms. Arianna Giuliodori, who was appointed Secretary General of the WFO in December 2017. After her degree in Communications Sciences, Ms. Giuliodori got a Master in Economics and Rural Development at Siena University in Italy. Farmers and agriculture have always been part of her working life: she spent 10 years serving at the Italian farmers’ organisation Coldiretti, first in Rome and then in Brussels, acting as Economic Officer, Secretary General of Young Farmers, Head of the President’s Technical Secretariat and finally as Senior Policy Advisor at the European Representation. Four years’ experience in an American multinational research and consulting company in Paris and an executive MBA at Sorbonne University complete her profile, giving her a strong business-oriented approach. In her present position as WFO Secretary General, she has been strongly promoting a solid governance of the association and a wide set of international partnerships, of which Nuffield International is one, to ensure that the farmers can play their fundamental role in the Sustainability challenge.
