Eduardo Luís Barreto Ferro Rodrigues (born in Lisbon, 3 November 1949) is a Portuguese politician and economist. He is a first cousin twice removed of António Ferro.
He was Minister for Social Security, and later for Public Works in the governments of António Guterres.
Shortly afterwards, in 2002, he was elected Secretary-General of the Portuguese Socialist Party, a position he retained for two years in spite of the multiple scandals that surrounded the party during that time. He finally resigned on 9 July 2004, immediately after President Jorge Sampaio announced a decision not to hold early elections when former Prime Minister Durão Barroso stepped down from office in order to be appointed President of the European Commission. Shortly after, Rodrigues was appointed as Ambassador, Permanent Representative of Portugal to the OECD.
