Joice Ferreira

I am a Brazilian Ecologist who has been working in the Easter Amazon for the last ten years as a researcher in the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (EMBRAPA). I am interested in contribute to solutions for the complex socioecological problems linked to agricultural expansion and management practices in the Amazon. I am currently developing researches in the environment and social interface relating land-uses and agricultural practices with ecosystem services provision, biodiversity conservation, and well-being of rural communities. I am also affiliated to post graduation courses at the Federal University of Pará - Ecology and Environmental Sciences.
