Carlota Ribeiro Sanches

I did a bachelor’s degree in Communication and Culture at the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Lisbon, and a postgraduate in Sustainable Human Development, at the University of Girona, Spain. Then, I moved to the United Kingdom where I worked both with community-based projects and independent retailers in sales and distribution of fresh organic produce. I also collaborated with different community gardens as part of Horticultural Therapy programs. Through the WWOOF networks (Worldwide Opportunities in Organic Farming) I have volunteered with agroecological farms in Brazil, Argentina and Chile as well as the United Kingdom.
