Profile
I am interested in the mechanisms that link biodiversity and human health/well-being. My research broadly aims to explore the benefits and harms associated with exposure to and experiences of biodiversity in urban communities in Switzerland and Ghana, using participatory approaches.
This work will contribute to a wider project - Commonpaths - focusing on urban resources managed as commons to understand the emergence, organisation and effects of various commonification processes.
