My research spans food systems, marine conservation, small-scale fisheries management, ocean sustainability, and equity in natural resource governance. As a Senior Research Associate at Lancaster University, I worked on governance, environmental justice, and human and food security within global food systems, with a particular focus on the small pelagic value chain in West Africa. During my PhD, I examined the role of equity in small-scale fisheries management, integrating concepts form social psychology, environmental justice and commons theory to identify institutional and socio-economic factors shaping equity and irs relationship to management outcomes. My master´s research assessed fisher´s peceptions of resource abundance as an alternative data source for data-poor artisanal fisheries in Chile. Finally, as a research assisstant at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile I investigated ecological and social impacts of fisheies co-management and the human dimensions of marine renewable energies.
