Teaching and Doctoral Supervision
Geography as a discipline provides an integrating approach to consider the relationships between humans and the environment. Sustainability provides a core concept for addressing global challenges and attending to trade offs in different dimensions. I am part of a team delivering the undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in Sustainable Development at the University of St Andrews.
