Introduction
PhD in Urban Studies (URBEUR) Department of Sociology and Social Research, University of Milan-Bicocca. My field is Urban Environmental Policies. I have worked on urban agriculture (INRA Montpellier; PoliMi), food policies (Fondazione Cariplo) and mobility behaviour (SEI at York; JRC in Seville; European Cyclists' Federation).
Both qualitative and quantitative.
Last years working on sustainability transitions in mobility behaviour, with a cohort approach.
