Ivonne Lobos Alva is the lead Research Fellow for work on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at SEI Latin America.
She is a sustainability expert with over a decade of experience, equally divided between scientific institutions and international development organizations.

Her current work focuses on supporting the implementation, follow-up and review of the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Ivonne combines her research and management experience with a passion for the design of participatory processes and has implemented over 50 participatory multi-stakeholder dialogues. She has systematically engaged in global platforms and processes: such as the Global Soil Partnership hosted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO); the process led by the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) to discuss the development of a Land Degradation Neutral World framework and to define global indicators for sustainable land and soil use; and the process at the United Nations to negotiate the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs.
