Blanca is passionate about learning as a process that triggers collective development. She a Human Resources Developer and Development Policy Administration and Management specialist dedicated to the facilitation, creation and Development Policy research of knowledge-generative networks that engage people at the city-region level. Since 2009, she works as a Researcher (Tenure track, Assistant Professorship in 2010) in the Public Policy Department of the Northern Borderlands Research College (COLEF) in its research unit based in Monterrey, Mexico. She works under the flag of Knowledge City schemes, particularly interested in exploring the human systems of learning and knowing in city-regions, and their impact on their development. She explores knowledge-based learning environments, repositories, networks and systems, and the social learning and management aspects as some of the key processes of Knowledge-based Development (KBD) in the urban context. She also manages the knowledge-based development international consultation exercise known as MAKCi Awards for the WCI organization, an international think-thank which convenes a K-Cities Summit on an annual basis. Blanca has contributed to the growing KBD literature with publications on knowledge city case studies and KBD models in spaces such as the Journal of Knowledge Management and the Journal of Knowledge-based Development. She also contributed to the seminal Knowledge Cities and Knowledge-based development books, under the Elsevier-Heinemann and Interscience brands. Recently, Blanca has joined the PASCAL International Observatory initiative, a UK-based global alliance that conveys the values, commitments, and skills of experts who see the importance of place, social capital, and social learning. PASCAL gathers, informs and converses with decision makers to design and implement regional development strategies that balance economic growth, social equity, and environmental sustainability.
