He has spent many years in Latin America and Asia where he worked in integrated rural development and land use programmes, after which he joined the Netherlands government as an international forestry policy advisor.

Since 2010, Herman is with Tropenbos International (TBI), where he coordinates the inclusive financing and business programme activities. He has co-authored several reports, articles, briefs and books on this topic (available at www.tropenbos.org).
