Sergio Villamayor-Tomás studies how communities and institutions govern shared natural resources such as water, farmland, and biodiversity, with a strong focus on cooperation, commons management, and sustainable food systems. His work examines topics like irrigation cooperatives, community gardens, agroecology, and policy schemes that pay farmers to protect the environment. Much of the research combines fieldwork and data-driven analysis across Europe (especially Spain) and Latin America.
