Maurizio is Assistant Professor of Economics at the University of Verona. He holds a PhD in Economics jointly awarded by Cattolica University and Bicocca University, in Milan.

One strand of his research focuses on the roots of historical development and the economic effects of climate and resource extraction in Sub-Saharan Africa. In addition, he currently studies how the gradual expansion of land aridification and desertification, accelerated by climate change, affects the socio-economic growth of different areas in the world.
