I am a global environmental governance scholar with over 15 years of experience in research. My goal is to contribute scientific knowledge and education for a greener, fairer and resilient future for all. My research includes the development of methodologies to assess the performance of transboundary state & non-state cooperation in sustainable development and climate change governance; as well as furthering knowledge about local contexts for global environmental governance approaches.
