Researcher in Marine Sciences, public communication of science and ocean literacy. I promote transdisciplinary science, which is co-produced between all sectors of society throughout the project. Enthusiast of socially referenced science, and in which the publication of the scientific article is just a stage in the process of doing science, which supports dissemination to other sectors of society. Therefore, I believe that in addition to producing science, we must strengthen the use of science by other sectors of society. This activity has taken place especially in projects aligned with the Ocean Decade and as coordinator of the Maré de Ciência Program at UNIFESP. In my work with UNESCO, I have coordinated the Escola Azul Brazil Program, I act as Executive Secretary of the Brazilian Alliance for Oceanic Culture and I am President of the World Group of Experts in Ocean Literacy. I have extensive experience in international collaboration projects, with scientific publications on biodiversity, climate change and impacts on the coastal zone. I collaborate with the popularization of science through dissemination through the media (TV, radio, newspapers) throughout Brazil. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The project is part of the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, focusing on the transformation of marine socio-environmental conflicts into more sustainable scenarios. Recognizing that conflicts in coastal zones involve disputes over rights, access, and the distribution of nature's benefits, the …
The coastal zone is a territory where socio-environmental conflicts manifest themselves locally and reflect deep struggles over property, rights, distribution and sharing of nature's benefits, often threatening the survival of coastal communities. In this way, aligning research and local government actions with global challenges for sustainable development and the fight against climate an…
Increasing coastal urbanization poses a significant threat to global biodiversity and ecosystem services supporting essential functions for billions of people. Driven by urbanization, this process leads to biodiversity loss and alterations in natural habitats, resulting in community homogenization and modifications to energy and nutrient cycles. This phenomenon is particularly observed in…
Marine litter visually expresses a variety of overlapping conflicts incident in the coastal zone. The project Artisanal Fisheries and Marine Socioenvironmental Conflicts (OceanPact/FAPESP) identified, in a participatory process, widespread marine pollution and large development projects as the main conflicts on the São Paulo coast. It is within the port regions, global maritime transport …
In this article we share our experiences, results, and lessons learned during the creation of a coastal biodiversity participatory monitoring initiative. Throughout 2019 we delivered 5 training workshops to 51 citizen scientists. We validated citizen sciencecollected data, by checking its similarities against that gathered by specialists. We found high similarity values, indicating that, …

Artisanal fishing is a globally important activity due to its contribution to food production, food security, job creation, and the social and symbolic reproduction of many traditional fishing communities. This type of fishing is characterized by the diversity of techniques and target species, as well as by a dynamic process of adaptation to environmental and institutional variations. Inc…
The world is experiencing a climate and biodiversity crisis, where it is essential to build paths of transformation, highlighting the importance of joint and transformative action from all sectors of society to achieve sustainable development, as established by the 2030 Agenda and the UN's Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030). In this proposal, we will investiga…
Artificial structures introduced at the interface between land and sea, such as retaining walls, bridges, piers and breakwaters, are ubiquitous components of coastal cities. These structures alter the physical environment and provide new consolidated habitats that host different assemblages of natural areas, facilitate bioinvasion and modify ecosystem functions. The undesirable and substa…

There is a change to integrate actions and conflicts from local and regional levels to the national level. Understanding how processes and power and in different levels and how they can influence on the sustainability and stakeholders participation is a key step to develop more participative processes and to allow the small groups to influence in the process. The recognition of the unequa…

Several studies have highlighted how the recent blue economy agenda can intensify or trigger other numerous conflicts and cases of environmental injustice in coastal and marine areas, especially in the Global South, such as Latin America. Despite growing concerns about 'blue justice', we still need to learn and identify ways to navigate into transformative changes in governance, and towar…
Mangroves are productive environments that execute important ecological functions, such as nursery areas for marine life, shoreline protection, carbon sequestration and production of fisheries resources. Despite mangrove productivity being considered a valuable ecosystem service, studies are mainly focused on the investigation of primary production. However, most fish species of economic …
Trophic interactions are fundamental in the regulation of ecological communities. While research has made significant advances in elucidating the relationship between natural environmental variation and biotic interactions, the effects of anthropogenic stressors on these ecological processes is relatively under-studied. This is an important requirement in a world under extensive and growi…
