About

My research focuses on commitment to sustainability transitions in emerging economies. Issues such as engagement with climate change mitigation, actors interaction in policy-making and how institutional frameworks affect the results are particularly interesting to me. I have a Law Degree (University of São Paulo, 2003), Masters in International Law (University of São Paulo, 2008) and Environmental Policy (University of Cambridge, 2010) and a PhD in International Relations (University of Brasilia, 2018). I was a Visiting Scholar at University of California San Diego and a Postdoctoral Fellow and Senior Lecturer at Stockholm University.
