About me
My research focuses on human-environment interactions in marine and coastal ecosystems. Current research interests include:
• Community involvement in natural resource conservation and management
• Socioeconomic assessment and monitoring for marine and coastal management
• Marine protected area policy and implementation (particularly in coral reef ecosystems)
• Participatory mapping
• Community climate resiliency
• Traditional ecological knowledge
• Institutional dynamics (NGOs, governments, community groups) in conservation and development
