Environmental and social scientist.

After spending several years teaching and doing research on environmental and sustainability policy analysis and ecological economics at the University of Cambridge (Land Economy), now I’m embarked in an exciting new project on sustainability at Nature (the scientific journal).

I am intrigued by what motivates pro-environmental behaviour and by understanding the diversity of perspectives on how to address environmental issues, with a view to support decision making, address conflict and inform effective policy implementation.

My most recent research looks at tropical forest conservation, with case studies in Mexico and Indonesia; the role of biodiversity indicators in rural governance; and enhancing methodologies to aid decision-making.
