She is a social scientist working for transdisciplinary sustainability projects since 2013, with extensive fieldwork experience in China, Finland, and Italy, mostly in rural-mountain areas. Her research has focused on various dimensions of socio-ecological change (e.g. sustainable rural development, nature-based social entrepreneurship, environmental activism and governance, human-nature relationships, etc.). 

The red thread in her work is the design, use, and evaluation of participatory, visual, and arts-based methodologies to engage different societal stakeholders and to promote transformative learning approaches in academia.

Dr. Moriggi holds a PhD in Rural Sociology from Wageningen University (NE). Her PhD study focused on Green Care practices in Finland and their connection to place-based sustainability.
