I am an interdisciplinary conservation scientist with broad interests in the interactions between social and ecological systems, and how we can manage these for the benefit of people and nature.

I am particularly interested in the relationships between communities, their local environment, and conservation actors; and how we can align often competing interests between these stakeholders. My PhD research looked at the ecological and social drivers of conservation conflicts surrounding large carnivores in the Ruaha landscape in Tanzania.

I am also interested in understanding the drivers of human behaviour in relation to a range of conservation and environmental issues. I am currently working as a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Freya St John's Conservation and Human Behaviour group. In this project my research is looking at understanding local people's relationships with protected areas, and how we can apply theories and methods from a range of disciplines to improve our understanding of the drivers of illegal behaviour in protected areas.

• Reconceptualising conservation law enforcement in protected areas

  Urgency to save species from extinction has prompted increased investment in law enforcement in and around protected areas, with considerable conservation resource spent training enforcers and supporting efforts to increase detection, prosecution, and sanctioning. However, relatively little evidence for the effectiveness of these approaches exists, and in recent years, investments in conservation law enforcement have come under increasing scrutiny due to associations with human-right abuses. In response, there has been a shift amongst practitioner organisations, funders, and governments to embed rights-based approaches into protected area governance, with a specific focus on implementing social safe-guards to improve how laws are enforced. To date dominant models of law enforcement have focused on increasing the cost of offending and reducing opportunities for offending to occur. Yet, other models of enforcement highlight that procedural fairness, and the legitimacy of enforcers and the laws themselves, are important but overlooked factors which can influence compliance. This workshop will draw conservation practitioners and academics together to share expertise and explore the need, opportunities, and challenges of reconceptualising how laws are enforced around protected areas.
