Eduardo Jorge Costa Pinto is a Portuguese environmental engineer, politician and member of the Assembly of the Republic, the national legislature of Portugal. A member of the LIVRE party, he has represented Porto since March 2024. At the 2015 legislative election Pinto was placed first on LIVRE's list of candidates in Europe but the party failed to win any seats in the constituency. Rendimento Básico Incondicional - Uma defesa da liberdade (2019), which he co-authored, won the 2019 Philosophy Essay Prize from the Portuguese Philosophy Society. Between the ages of 18 and 25, Pinto was a member of the Socialist Party but became disillusioned with the party's lack of commitment to progressivism, environmentalism and the European left ideals.
