Teresa Pinto-Correia
With a background in Geography, Teresa focuses her research on the dynamics and management of rural landscapes and agricultural
systems in the Mediterranean context, relations between landscape and agriculture, landscape multi-functionality, transition
processes, policy and management decisions across scales, and governance mechanisms. Teresa hold the position of associate
professor at the University of Évora since 1999, till obtaining her full professorship in 2018. Since 2012 Teresa has acted
as Head of the Mediterranean Institute for Agriculture, Environment and Development - MED (former ICAAM), with 140 senior
researchers across multiple disciplines. Teresa has led the integration of ICAAM with 3 other leading research units, placing
the newly formed Mediterranean Institute for Agriculture, Environment and Development (MED) in the broader Mediterranean research
context. The research team LABscape – Mediterranean Landscape Systems LAB is an internationally competitive team of 15 researchers
including 8 experienced post-docs, lead by Teresa. The team’s expertise lays in rural geography, remote sensing, Landscape
ecology and engineering, and transdisciplinary constructions. What makes the team unique in the international sphere is the
focus on rural landscapes in the Mediterranean context, and the capacity to analise landscapes with a dynamic systems approach
where the natural, social and cultural factors are combined. For the future, Teresa aims is to use continue applying system
thinking research on Mediterranean landscapes and to bring towards a dominant scientific position
