Responsável pelo projecto Drogas e Prisões em Portugal II, financiado pelo Instituto da Droga e da Toxicodependência.

Drogas e Prisões II trata-se de um estudo que pretende replicar a investigação realizada em 2001, e tem como objectivo principal conhecer as transformações operadas desde então no meio prisional português. Assim, ambiciona-se com este estudo obter dados quantitativos precisos sobre a caracterização da população prisional portuguesa, quer a nível da etologia dos crimes, quer da real extensão da problemática das drogas nas prisões, bem como dados sobre a saúde dos reclusos. E ainda, identificar diferentes perfis de reclusos e ainda perceber as principais inquietações tanto de directores como de reclusos sobre a vida nos estabelecimentos prisionais.

The investigation proposed falls within the framework of research work at a European level entitled The changing relationship between work, welfare and gender equality in Europe: Developing a capabilities approach to transition using quantitative and qualitative cross-national comparison between and within European countries. It involves 26 countries from the four corners of the continent. The main object of this research is to gain an insight into and explain the relationship between work, family care, well-being and gender equality.

The study of man's role in the pursuit of equality goals emerges as a central matter in this project. Moreover, this research aims to realize the process of parenthood formation according to social and cultural diversity of young parents, as a way to understand, to identify and if possible to explain the existence of different and/or new attitudes towards fatherhood.
