Beth Turner starts PhD on NbS and resilience

Monday 30 Nov 2020
Beth Turner
Beth Turner was joint first author on the systematic map of NbS for climate change adaptation, and is now starting a PhD in collaboration with NbSI.

Beth will be exploring how forest landscape restoration can contribute to socio-ecological resilience to global changes. She will investigate this approach in sites in Bolivia and Canada where wildfires, climate change, and land-use change are increasing the vulnerability of forests and the communities who depend on them. She will be based out of the Université du Québèc à Montréal in partnership with NbSI.
