Bernardo Almeida

I am an Economics student at the University of Minho, motivated by issues such as climate change, economic inequality and a new social contract for the 21st century. I was born in Brazil, but moved to Portugal at the age of 16. During high school, I was a member of the Fridays for Future movement, helping to organize studentes climate strikes in my city of Braga, Portugal. This experience motivated me to study more about climate change and other social problems. I am, currently, an undergrduate Economics student at the University of Minho, but my interests are also in the fields of cognitive science and law.
