Pan Ei Ei Phyoe

Pan Ei is a current postgraduate student at the University of Oxford's Water Science, Policy and Management (WSPM) programme. Before coming to Oxford, Pan Ei earned her MSc in Water Resources Engineering and Management from the University of Stuttgart in Germany and BEng in Port and Harbour Engineering at the Myanmar Maritime University in Myanmar.

She has a track record of implementing integrated water resource management strategies in Europe and Myanmar. She spent six months researching water technologies at the water campus Leeuwarden in the Netherlands and six months exploring sustainable hydropower, climate resilience, and river basin development at the International Hydropower Association in the United Kingdom. Prior to that, she spent a year at Myanmar's International Water Management Institute office, where she worked on management strategies and water governance.

Pan Ei's research interests integrate her technical expertise with policy and governance principles to bridge the gap between science and social demands in order to reach her ultimate goal of tackling water scarcity and ensuring ecological and environmental security for long-term water management. Pan Ei thrives on challenges and appreciates researching innovative, nature-based and sustainable water solutions, especially for climate-vulnerable countries.
