Rosa Dias
Rosa has taken on the challenge of preserving her family’s ecological farming legacy in the Algarve. She prioritises practices that preserve soil health and has invested in her farm’s economic diversification. She co-founded the Al-Bio Agroecological Association to support the agroecological transition from production to sales and political demands. Being a woman in a masculinised sector has brought her challenges, but also a more complex view of agriculture and food systems centred on a care perspective.

I look at the system as something more complex, in which things may not directly have a very high profitability, but they leverage others.
