Notă biografică

Working together since 2001, Priscila Lopes and Alpina Begossi established a fruitful partnership that first started as a student-professor relationship. The similar interests in Brazilian artisanal fisheries strengthened their collaboration to multiple projects on the Brazilian coast and in the Amazon, where they have been studying fishers' behaviour and ethnoecology. Priscila Lopes holds a Ph.D. in Ecology (State University of Campinas - UNICAMP, Brazil) and currently is an associated researcher at Fisheries and Food Institute. Her research has focused on small-scale fisheries, local fisheries management initiatives, and the use of ecological models to understand human foraging behaviour. In the last years she has been working as a consultant on Amazonian small-scale fisheries and indigenous use of natural resources to different Brazilian federal institutes. Some of her research also approach ethnoecology, ethnobiology and diet change processes on fishers' communities. Alpina Begossi, Ph.D. in Ecology (University of California, Davis), has been studying the ecology of Amazonian and Atlantic Forest fisheries as one of her main research lines, among other studies in human ecology. She has about 100 published works, besides four books with other authors. She is currently the Executive Director of the Fisheries and Food Institute (FIFO), an NGO founded by her and collaborators and also works as a Researcher at the State University of Campinas (Capesca, Preac, UNICAMP).
