CONSERVATION INNOVATION LAB

How can humans and the ecosystems we depend on thrive in a changing climate?

I am a transdisciplinary scholar interested in the intersection of climate change, conservation, and livelihoods.  The Conservation Innovation Lab investigates the following questions with communities: 
  • How should conservation be practiced in the context of climate change?
  • How can and are humans are adapting and transforming current systems of food production, water supply and conservation to meet their needs and the needs of future generations?
  • How do we gauge the success of adaptation and transformation efforts? ​
  • How can we better incorporate qualitative  experience (sense of place, local and indigenous knowledge, values) into adaptation planning? 

Lab Opportunities

There are many opportunities to engage with my lab, either as a undergraduate,graduate student or a community partner who would like assistance with a project. Please see below for a list of current opportunities: 
  • For Students:
    • Join the climate action pod!
    • Assist with the creation of an Intermountain Network of Resilience, Adaptation and Vulnerability (RAV) Researchers. 
    • Conduct qualitative research to understand how sense of place can influence conservation behavior.
    • Assess current levels of integration between mitigation and adaptation in climate action plans. 
  • For Community Partners:
    • I am always happy to discuss your project needs and how my lab could assist!​
