معرفی
Avanti Pinto is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Business and Law, University of Brighton, where she contributes to the Business and Economic Change Research Excellence Group. Her academic work bridges environmental economics and international trade, with a focus on policy implications for welfare and carbon leakage.
Her research interests lie at the intersection of environmental policy and global trade dynamics. She specializes in theoretical models assessing the welfare and trade effects of international environmental agreements, with recent work exploring the socio-economic challenges of the low-carbon transition, particularly in artisanal and small-scale mining sectors. Her expertise spans optimal policy design, carbon leakage, and the economic dimensions of sustainability.
The two most recent articles highlight a consistent focus on environmental cooperation and trade. They reflect a broader trend in her scholarship: analyzing how international agreements influence economic welfare and environmental outcomes, especially under conditions of imperfect policy coordination. Her work combines rigorous economic theory with real-world policy applications, particularly in resource-dependent economies undergoing energy transitions.
