Luciane Lucas dos Santos
Biography
I am an associate researcher at the Centre for Social Studies, University of Coimbra, having co-coordinated the Research Group on Democracy, Citizenship and Law at CES from 2018 to March 2021. Currently, I am a curricular unit coordinator and senior lecturer at the "Human Rights in contemporary societies" PhD Programme (CES/IIIUC). With regard to research projects, I am the consortium coordinator and PI of "COMCHA - community-based change: local and traditional knowledge in NbS", funded by FCT and the European Biodiversity Partnership (Biodiversa+) and local PI of the project "BioTraCes - Biodiversity and Transformative Change for Plural and Nature-Positive Societies" (HORIZON-CL6-2022-BIODIV-01-09/Grant 101081923), headed by the Wageningen University (The Netherlands). I co-coordinated the Study Group on Solidarity Economy at CES (ECOSOL-CES) from October 2019 to October 2023 and, since 2020, co-coordinate POLICREDOS, a working group intertwining gender, politics and religion. From 2016 to 2018, I was a Guest Associate Professor at the Federal University of Southern Bahia (Brazil). Holding a PhD in Communication and Culture from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (2004) and a Master's Degree from the same institution (1999), I had a long academic career as professor at the State University of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ/Brazil). In 2008, I moved to Sociology, focusing on economic sociology. My main research and lecturing interests are: feminist economics, feminist aesthetics, postcolonial feminisms, postcolonial studies on consumption and Economics, poverty and social inequalities from an interseccional perspective, European identities and Otherness. Among the relevant outputs in the last five years, it is worth stressing: 2 co-edited books by Routledge, 6 book chapters, 4 journal articles (one of them for the prestigious Journal of Rural Studies), and 2 entries, by invitation, for the UNRISD Encyclopedia of Social and Solidarity Economy, edited by Elgar.
