Eduardo Carvalho

Eduardo Carvalho is an independent award-winning curator who is known for his innovative approach to exhibitions and digital experiences. With a background in journalism, science communication and curatorial practices, he has developed a reputation for exploring contemporary themes and integrating technology into art experience to articulate the impact of global warming on our earth through immersive and interactive exhibitions.  

Before transitioning to the cultural sector, Carvalho was a reporter and editor for Globo TV, covering science and environmental topics. During this period, he traveled to many places, among them to Antarctica to document Brazilian scientific research – and it was a transformative experience. He has a long-standing commitment to climate action, covering UN climate negotiations starting at COP16 (Cancun, 2010), Rio+20 (2012), and COP20 (Lima, 2014).    

For six years, he was a member of the curatorial team at the Museum of Tomorrow in Rio de Janeiro, where he was responsible for creating projects and exhibitions regarding innovation, food and the future, the pandemic, and the Amazon that reached more than one million visitors. Since 2021, he has been developing educational experiences, exhibitions, and pavilions for UN Climate Change Conferences, starting with COP26, in Glasgow.

Carvalho is known for integrating new technologies into his curatorial projects that often challenge traditional formats. He often collaborates with artists, technologists, and institutions to foster interdisciplinary projects that push the boundaries of conventional art practices. Currently, his company, Outra Onda Conteúdo, is developing two new museums in Brazil. Carvalho is also one of the creators of a book collection that focuses on teaching elementary school children in Brazil about solutions to climate change – a work that mirrors the 2026 Earth Month theme “Our Power and Our Planet.”
