Research interests

I am a geographer and planner with a keen interest in water and river basin management, disaster risk reduction and climate resilience. My professional background spans academic research, environmental regulation and ecological monitoring.

I am investigating individual and organisational knowledge and learning, to support the implementation of water and climate policies across different sectors with a focus on Nature Based Solutions.

I employ transdisciplinary and participatory research approaches to encourage a broad participation of actors, social learning and integrate the multiple environmental, social, cultural, political and spiritual aspects of environmental decision making.
