Leticia Canal Vieira

Assistant Professor at the Department of Management (DiSA). I have a bachelor in Environmental Engineering (Universidade de Passo Fundo, Brazil), a masters' in Production Engineering (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil) and a PhD in Environmental Planning (Griffith University, Australia).

My research interest lies in how organisations respond to global sustainability challenges. More specifically, I am studying how manufacturing industries address the low-carbon transition and climate change action and how instruments like decarbonisation strategies and sustainability reports can create organisational change. Previously, I have researched food systems and the role local initiatives can play in a sustainability transition and in increasing food systems' resilience to climate change effects.
