AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Climate and Environmental Security
Climate change and widespread harm to the environment are making us less secure. My contributions to this rapidly growing field include:
Leading research on security sector roles in environmental security
Exploring the impact of climate and environmental factors on rural and Indigenous women’s security
Designing new climate security courses for international military audiences
Security Sector Management & Governance
Security sector institutions (including the military and police) play a critical role in peace and security. How they're managed and governed is crucial—and so is their connection with local communities. I have over 15 years of experience supporting security sector leaders and institutions in:
Developing more transparent, accountable approaches to management
Planning for an uncertain future
Aligning human and financial resources with strategic goals
Diplomacy and Negotiations
How we reach agreements is often as important as the agreements themselves. Today’s interconnected challenges, from the climate crisis to shrinking civic space, demand more creative and inclusive negotiation approaches.
I bring lessons learned from years of experience in multilateral and bilateral negotiations and facilitation to empower organizations with valuable negotiating and communication skills.
Regenerative approaches to leadership and management
In a period of accelerating change and widespread depletion of resources, traditional approaches to management are no longer adequate. Thriving ecosystems in nature offer key lessons for reversing ecological and societal harm, and for developing organic and agile approaches to organizational management.
I offer workshops to help organizations explore and apply regenerative principles to (re)define their unique value and scale the impact they want to achieve.
In offering these services, I partner with a wide network of experts in:
◉ Environmental science
◉ Peacebuilding
◉ Negotiations
◉ Conflict resolution
◉ Organizational psychology
◉ Public sector management
…and other fields to design and deliver insightful, tailored, pragmatic support.
