Research
Areas: Environmental Governance, Rights, and Technology
My work examines the ways in which institutions adapt to environmental, political, and technological change. Substantively, I focus on environmental justice, environmental law, human and non-human rights, sustainable development, and artificial intelligence. I seek to answer questions such as: Who belongs to communities of justice in the Anthropocene? How might technological innovations affect the prospects for achieving democracy, sustainable development, and environmental justice? How can law be better equipped to address environmental challenges? I am trained in qualitative and quantitative methods, and have conducted field research in China, Japan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
