Rubén Darío Ramírez-Ramírez

I am a researcher in data science for sustainability, working at the intersection of society, politics, economy, and the environment. My work integrates statistics, artificial intelligence, and complex systems approaches to generate robust, data-driven evidence that supports decision-making in complex socio-environmental contexts.

My research focuses on understanding and modeling socio-ecological systems, with the goal of improving sustainability outcomes through interdisciplinary analysis and innovative analytical tools.

Research Interests

My research interests are organized around four main areas:

🌱 Socio-ecological systems dynamics
I study the interactions between human societies and ecosystems, with particular attention to the social, economic, and political processes that shape these dynamics.

💚 Nature’s values
I explore the diverse ways in which people value nature and work on integrating these perspectives into decision-making processes and public policy design.

🦋 Biodiversity management and conservation
I apply computer vision, statistical modeling, and spatial analysis to species classification and monitoring, generating evidence to support biodiversity management and conservation strategies.

🏛️ Governance and public policy
I analyze policy integration and coherence using quantitative and data-driven methods, aiming to improve policy design, implementation, and decision-making processes.

Overall, my research seeks to integrate interdisciplinary approaches to strengthen sustainability, generating knowledge and innovative tools based on data science and artificial intelligence that support both public policy development and the management and conservation of socio-ecological systems.
