I teach courses in Ecological Economics, Community Economic Development, and interdisciplinary qualitative research design. I often work with students pursuing research themes related to climate justice, local economic development, trade and the environment, water management, and feminist ecological economics. I was the Lead Author for the 6th Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change chapter on "Demand, Services, and Social Aspects of Mitigation."
