He is a visiting assistant professor at Universidade Nova de Lisboa and a researcher at the CRIA. Since 2022, Pedro has been conducting a research project, "eSefarad: modalities and practices of digital patrimonialization of the Sephardic cultural legacy in Mediterranean contexts," at CRIA-NOVA FCSH, focusing on the circulation of Jewish-Moroccan material culture in a global Mediterranean context. This project, situated at the intersection of anthropology of religion, material culture, and museum studies, emphasises the social, historical and political processes entailed in the musealisation of Jeudeo-Moroccan heritage.
