Letícia Figueiredo Collado
@letciafigueiredocoll
I build data-informed urban policy and climate adaptation solutions.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently supporting research and teaching on real estate development, urban development, and smart cities at HTW Berlin while completing a Master in Data Science for Public Policy at Hertie School.
At GIZ's CitiesAdapt programme, I managed multilingual communications, supported monitoring and evaluation tracking tools, and helped improve a Remote Sensing Tool hosted on Google Earth Engine. I also organized digital events with national, state, and local government stakeholders in South Africa and Mexico.
For the City of Osasco, I produced geospatial analysis from public-survey microdata and administrative records, coordinated the GeoPortal, and contributed technical studies and legal text for the Municipal Master Plan revision. Earlier in São Paulo, I coordinated georeferencing and public-property management work and produced maps for land-use legislation.
My work combines R, Python, SQL, georeferencing, survey data, and policy research. I've also researched active transportation using a SAR Probit model, curated Brazilian public-survey microdata, and analyzed COVID-19 policy and labour-market data.
