He obtained the master’s degree (MSc) of the programme Integrated Natural Recourse Management at the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin in 2018.

As an economist, Miguel has approached these issues from a neoclassical economics perspective. However, his experience relates primarily to interdisciplinary research of agricultural frontiers in the Peruvian Amazon. He also participated in interdisciplinary research in other topics, for example, continental fisheries, and climate change mitigation and adaptation. Currently, he bases his work and teaching on institutional theory and social-ecological systems, looking at agriculture. In this frame, he visits the WINS, funded the National Programme for Agricultural Innovation (PNIA) of Peru for a small research project under the title “Innovations Facilitating Agricultural Innovation”.
