Ideas:
“  I am currently pursuing ways to more effectively integrate climate change into environmental assessment processes at the project, strategic and regional levels. I am considering more generally the design and implementation of next generation assessment processes, with a particular focus on Canada's new IAA and the EA Process under the current BBNJ negotiations. I am also researching several aspects of the UN climate regime, including its use and relevance in climate litigation.  ”
