Bio

I am a psychologist and graduate, master and doctorate teacher in Spain and Colombia. I have been part of the COSOYPA research group since 2011. My doctoral thesis “Political Protest: Motives and Contexts” received the Extraordinary Doctorate Award and was selected by the CIS to be presented at the Seminar on Political and Sociological Research at Harvard. During the years 2011 to 2017 I have been Editorial Assistant of the International Journal of Social Psychology. I have been a visiting researcher at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, with a grant from the Pedro Barrié de la Maza Foundation. And from ISCTE-IUL in Lisbon and the University of Groningen with the Xunta postdoctoral fellowship.

My research career has basically focused on two main lines: on the one hand, collective action and on the other, environmental behavior.
