Research overview
I hold the position of Chair in Global Challenges. My research focuses on the institutional economics of natural resource management and takes an interdisciplinary approach bringing together both the natural and social sciences. I am interested in the links between local and international law and policy and the practical aspects of implementation of global agreements. I work in many different countries with recent projects in Nepal, Lebanon, Tanzania and Mexico.
