Melanie Muro

Senior Policy Analyst, CAP and Food

Melanie joined the CAP and Food team in June 2023. Her work focuses on the analysis and evaluation of EU agricultural and environmental policies, and their implementation in the European Member States.


Before joining IEEP, Melanie worked at Milieu Consulting, designing and delivering research and advice for European environmental policymaking and implementation in the fields of soil, agriculture, nature, water, and marine policy. 


Prior to her time with Milieu, she primarily worked as a researcher and educator, first with the Institute of Landscape and Environmental Planning at the Technical University Berlin in 2004 and 2005, and then the Cranfield Water Science Institute from 2005 until 2011. Her academic work mainly focused on the design, implementation and evaluation of innovative natural resource management approaches, methods and tools, the dynamics and benefits of partnership working and learning processes, water consumer behaviours and attitudes as well as financial and behavioural tools for water demand management.


Melanie holds a Master’s degree in Environmental Planning from the Technical University Berlin and, in 2008, was awarded a PhD in Water Management from Cranfield University in the UK. She is fluent in English and German.
