Sofia Oliveira, PhD, is a post-doc fellowship (BIPD/EWRI/03/2023) at BRU-ISCTE investigating working relationships' impact on employees' health. Her MSc and PhD research focused on mitigating teacher burnout and promoting their occupational health, well-being, and self-care practices through SEL. Her research also emphasizes the importance of addressing workplace conditions and fostering a positive work culture to promote employee well-being, satisfaction, and work performance. To do so, Sofia Oliveira has designed, implemented, and evaluated an online SEL intervention targeting Portuguese teachers that accounted for the impact of social/contextual variables at every stage of its conception. She has also developed two meta-analyses assessing the effects of SEL interventions for teachers. All in all, her work is framed by 2 key statements: the need to prioritize adults' SEC; and the pivotal role of the context and of school leaders in enabling the promotion and expression of SEC.

Over the past 18 years, Alex has worked as an advocate in the UK, USA, Mexico, Canada, and Eastern Europe, assisting individuals in the family courts that either cannot afford an attorney or have realised that such practitioners often do more to harm their case than achieve a decent outcome. For this reason, he founded the company Family Law Alternatives, which is all about showing people that there are often different approaches worth considering, mediation for example, as opposed the traditional adversarial approach used all too often in the family courts.
