Tasks & research interests
I am interested in societal and organisational sustainability transformations and their governance, and my work at Syke focuses on:
- transformative change in the context of biodiversity and related sustainability issues
- the science-policy interface supporting the EU Biodiversity strategy 2030
- business impacts and dependencies on biodiversity and ecosystem services
In addition to working at Syke, I am affiliated with the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki Institute of Sustainability Science, and I serve as an editor for the journals Circular Economy and Sustainability and Canadian Journal of Forest Research.
