Research
I am a landscape ecologist and my main interest is to investigate management and policy strategies to conciliate agricultural production and biodiversity conservation in fragmented landscapes. In my PhD, my aim is to evaluate the costs and benefits associated with a land regulation policy on agricultural landscapes in Brazil and to evaluate the effectiveness of coffee environmental certification schemes for conservation, also in Brazil.
