She is behind

 

 

Responsible for all content on this website: Sonja Vilei. BSc in Food Science and Nutrition, MSc in Rural Development, Food Marketing and Co-operative Organisation, PhD in agricultural economics.

 

Copy-editor and translator.

Beyond all titles: human, woman, mother.

 

(Preliminary) Target reached.

I have been a freelance copy-editor and translator since 2011.

Besides I am working as scientific editor at the Kompetenzzentrum für Ernährung (KErn) and am responsible for the Ernährungsradar.

Before and during writing my PHD thesis I spent years as scientific associate at the Institute for Agricultural Economics of the University of Hohenheim.

 

The journey to reach this target.

Starting in Ludwigsburg, Germany, I moved to Fulda to study Nutrition and Food Business. A placement brought me to Dublin, Ireland. For my Bachelor thesis I moved to Cork (also Ireland) and added a Master in Rural Development, Food Marketing and Co-operative Organisation, travelling to Ethopia for my thesis.

For my PhD in Agriculture I crossed the globe to reach the Philippines and evaluate, discuss, and write about Participatory Evaluation of the Sustainability of Farming Systems.

Besides and in between I found or founded (and cherish) a family of my own.
