I am a human geographer and political ecologist working as a postdoctoral research associate in the School of Society and Culture. My research centres on environmental governance, with a particular interest in in the interconnection of ecological and political crises and their solutions, and the importance of knowledge diversity in this space.Across my work, I investigate how governance systems can facilitate genuine collaboration by asking fundamental questions about decision-making: who is invited to the table, what decisions are made there, and whose tables are chosen in the first place. I examine how different actors are enabled or constraint in shaping decisions that affect their lives, communities and regions, and how administrative structures and processes can create or limit opportunities for meaningful engagement. I am also interested in innovative approaches to environmental governance that recognise more-than-human agency and to environmental education that foster reflexivity and an openness to the validity of diverse knowledge systems.
