ABOUT MARCO PASINI
I am an expert in Microfinance and International Cooperation with almost 20 years of experience. I am currently strongly engaged in the issues of financial inclusion and ethical finance. Since 2014 I\'ve been working for Microfinanza Srl, focusing on financial education and rural microfinance, with a solid experience in Haiti. In 2017 I started working with Associazione Microfinanza e Sviluppo Onlus, with focus on financial inclusion and social and green entrepreneurship in East Africa and MENA region, especially in Tanzania and Tunisia. In April 2019 I also joined Venetex, a fintech implementing an innovative complementary currency circuit that brings to Veneto Region (Italy) the successful experience of Sardex, in Sardinia. I\'ve been working in international cooperation projects since 2004, being involved in all steps of project cycle: from drafting and designing projects, to implementation, accounting, reporting and evaluation. I’ve been trainer in Project Cycle Management. I have specific competence in M&E.My activity mainly deals with developing countries, especially Sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean and, more recently, the Mediterranean.

For two years (2011-12) I\'ve been desk officer at the headquarter of an International NGO, Doctors with Africa CUAMM.Before 2011, for more than six years I have been working for the Italian Region Veneto - and the University of Padova for a shorter period - being involved in projects covering Eastern Europe (Western Balkans and new EU Member States) and the Middle East. In the last two and a half year I have been the team leader of the project management office.Overall, I have short or long term field experience in the following countries: Albania, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Croatia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Israel, Kenya, Northern Macedonia, Malawi, Morocco, Romania, Palestine (West Bank), Serbia, Tanzania, Tunisia and Uganda.My academic background is in International Relations, with postgraduate studies in Microfinance and Rural Development.I am interested in professional opportunities in development projects, especially in the field of Microfinance and financial inclusion.
