Research Professor at INGENIO (CSIC-UPV), Valencia (Spain). She has been the director of the Chair of Agroecology and Food Systems (UVic-UCC) between 2014 and 2021. Her research experience has given her a multidisciplinary profile in the analysis of agri-food systems. In recent years she has focused on the sociology of agriculture and food, and particularly on the interactions between agriculture, food, society, and the environment, with an emphasis on climate change adaptation and food security and sovereignty, as well as on the social function of agriculture and the role of women from a feminist studies perspective.
