I have a particular interest in the potential of local traditional agri-food knowledge in adaptation to climate change, food security and food sovereignty, as well as in the analysis of feminists and commons theories as to be adopted in agri-food research. I am also interested in the way different discourses co-exist in agricultural research and management. I have participated as lead author in the UN-lead assessments the International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD, 2005-2008); the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) in the chapters Rural Areas (AR5, 2010-2014) and Food security (SRCCL, 2017-2019), and the Interguvernmental Platfor for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES, nexus assessment Food, Water, Biodiversity, Health, Energy in the context of climate change).
