She also teaches statistics and econometrics for the MSc in Environmental Change and Management at ECI/SoGE. Fernanda works on both climate change mitigation and adaptation, with an emphasis on developing countries. Her current research focuses on modelling labour market transitions and on the effects of climate mitigation policies on different dimensions of sustainable development, as measured by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In policy, she focuses on disaster risk management, particularly on sovereign financial adaptation to climate risks. Current projects include: "Data-driven systems mapping of SDGs and their interaction with the energy transition" and "Modelling labour market transitions: the case of productivity shifts in Brazil".
