Maria Llanos del Corral

María is a social psychologist with an MA in International Cooperation. She worked in this field for 8 years with the Red Cross in Peru, Malawi, Niger and Spain in the fields of community development, economic development, strengthening civil society and education. María shifted into being an organisational change consultant and facilitator after a Masters in “Economics for Transition” at Schumacher College, where she realised the importance of shifting the paradigm from where we act in the world in order to co-create a sustainable future. She is a specialist in applying complex living systems theory and collaborative methodologies focusing on leadership, values, culture creation and the structures and methodologies needed in our organisations to better understand and thrive within the complex, changeable and uncertain reality we live in. Some of her published work includes: Collaborative tools for Social Organisations and Activism and Spirituality.

Currently Maria works for La Bolina, which is building intercultural, inclusive, ecological and regenerative communities.
