Resumo
Ecologist with a multidisciplinary background in community development, environmental management, and sustainable economic revitalization. My work integrates ecological resilience with social well-being, drawing on expertise in agroecology, permaculture, sustainability transitions, and circular economy strategies. I hold a Master’s degree in Sustainability Transitions from the University of Aberdeen (UK), awarded through the prestigious Chevening Scholarship. I am also licensed in Ecology with distinction from the University of São Paulo (UNESP, Brazil), supported by the Brazilian Government’s PEC-G Scholarship. Additionally, I have postgraduate diplomas in Project Management (PMBOK 6) and Territorial Branding, alongside executive training in Sustainable Management (Porto Business School, Portugal) and Circular Economy from the University of Cambridge. These qualifications have deepened my understanding of sustainable development, circularity, and nature-based solutions. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across the public, private, and civil society sectors. Notably, I served as Head of Programs at the First Lady’s Office in Mozambique, gaining experience in governance and development. I founded KOSMOZ Sustainability Catalyst and KOSMOZ Platform for Integral Human Development—organizations dedicated to empowering communities and promoting regenerative practices and social well-being. These organizations have garnered recognition earning accolades such as the International Prize Book for Peace. I engage in global sustainability dialogues, contributing to high-level international conferences like the UN's COPs. My advocacy focuses on food sovereignty, biodiversity conservation, and climate action. As a board member of the Global Ecovillage Network Africa and a member of the Land and Environment Board of Mozambique’s Confederation of Economic Associations, I help shape policies for sustainable land management and community-driven development across
