I am an environmental social scientist working in the Environmental Governance Group of the Social, Economic and Geographical Sciences Department at the James Hutton Institute. I have a research and teaching background in resource management, conservation ecology, and habitat modelling for species conservation in the UK and overseas. Building on this I then moved, via interdisciplinary studies on wildlife related human conflict, to researching stakeholder attitudes, collaborative processes, policy, and governance structures in relation to catchment focussed natural resource management challenges, both in Scotland and Malawi.  

Research

Recent research has focussed on the barriers and opportunities to rolling out effective freshwater nature based solutions. This continues in one of the projects I’m currently involved in:

  • Scaling and Mainstreaming Nature-based Solutions
  • Emerging Water Futures: Resilience of Private Water Supplies

I have also recently joined another water related project – this time with a focus on household and community vulnerability to accessing sufficient and safe water when reliant on Private Water Supplies:

  • Emerging Water Futures: Resilience of Private Water Supplies

 

Publications

The following Publications have not yet been migrated to the James Hutton Institute's Pure service and relate to the research outputs from the two legacy organisations: The Macaulay Land Use Research Institute and The Scottish Crop Research Institute.
