Trosolwyg
Yng nghyd-destun gwleidyddiaeth amgylcheddol fyd-eang, mae fy ymchwil yn archwilio symudiadau amgylcheddol a chymdeithasol, a sut mae rheolau byd-eang yn cael eu gwneud a'u hail-wneud. Mae fy ngwaith yn ymwneud ag ystod eang o faterion amgylcheddol, gan gynnwys newid yn yr hinsawdd, bioamrywiaeth, gwarchod coedwigoedd, a rheoli cemegol a gwastraff. Derbyniais fy PhD o Brifysgol British Columbia ym mis Mai 2017.
Trwy gyfrannu at Bwletin Trafodaethau'r Ddaear – cofnod de facto trafodaethau amgylcheddol byd-eang, rwyf wedi mynychu tua 40 o gynadleddau'r Cenhedloedd Unedig lle mae gwladwriaethau'n trafod rheolau llywodraethu hinsawdd byd-eang, yn ogystal â rheoli cemegau a gwastraff, ac wedi cyhoeddi dros 100 o fwletinau gyda fy nghydweithwyr ENB. Rwy'n golygu rownd flynyddol i fyny'r Cyflwr Llywodraethu Amgylcheddol Byd-eang ar gyfer ENB. Rwyf hefyd yn gweithio gydag amrywiaeth o gyrff anllywodraethol rhyngwladol a gwledydd Prydain ar newid yn yr hinsawdd ac ymgyrchoedd adfer gwyrdd.

Ymchwil
Mae fy mhrosiectau a chyhoeddiadau yn rhannu rhai themâu cyffredin . Yn gyntaf, rwy'n aml yn gofyn sut y gall trafodaethau rhyngwladol wella a gwireddu canlyniadau buddiol i'r amgylchedd, trwy astudio straeon llwyddiant, arloesiadau mewn prosesau negodi, a dynameg negodi sylfaenol. Yn ail, rwy'n edrych y tu hwnt i drafodaethau i archwilio sut mae actorion nad ydynt yn wladwriaeth yn ceisio siapio rheolau byd-eang a phan fyddant yn ffurfio eu rheolau eu hunain yn uniongyrchol, gan weithio mewn partneriaethau ag eraill. Yn drydydd, gofynnaf sut mae'r bydoedd hyn - trafodaethau sy'n canolbwyntio ar y wladwriaeth yn y Cenhedloedd Unedig, a phartneriaethau nad ydynt yn wladwriaeth - yn rhyngweithio ac, ar adegau, yn gwrthdaro.
Prosiectau parhaus
Esblygiad Llywodraethu Hinsawdd: Mae'r gwaith hwn yn cynnwys gwaith archifol a chyfweld i ddatgelu ac ail-adrodd stori llywodraethu hinsawdd, gan gynnwys ei fod bob amser wedi bod yn benderfynol yn genedlaethol ac yn seiliedig ar addewidion. Yn y prosiect hwn, rwyf hefyd yn parhau i weithio sy'n gysylltiedig ag ymgysylltu cyrff anllywodraethol.
MegaCOPs: Cynadleddau newid hinsawdd (aka COPs) yw'r digwyddiadau mwyaf yng nghalendr y Cenhedloedd Unedig. Yn y prosiect hwn, rwy'n archwilio'r rhesymau dros dros 60,000 o bobl sy'n mynychu'r cyfarfodydd hyn, yn enwedig o ystyried y canlyniadau sy'n aml yn rhai prin.
Llywodraethu Plastigau a Chemegau a Gwastraff: Mae gwaith yn y maes hwn yn cynnwys cwestiynau ynghylch sut mae gwastraff yn cael ei lywodraethu a sut mae cyrff anllywodraethol yn ymgysylltu. Rwy'n edrych ar yr ymdrechion sy'n dod i'r amlwg, dameidiog i reoleiddio masnach plastig (sy'n anwybyddu cwestiynau cynhyrchu a defnyddio plastigau) a pham mae eiriolwyr yn gymharol dawel ar wastraff electronig a thrydanol (e-wastraff), er gwaethaf ei dwf cyflym a'i effeithiau niweidiol ar bobl a'r blaned.

Bywgraffiad
My research explores environmental and social movements, and how global rules are made and remade. My recent book, The New Climate Activism, explains why non-state actors campaign for causes in which they lack expertise and prior experience, and, why some of these actors are able to successfully join activist and other networks working on these new issues, while others fail to gain such acceptance.
My publications in Global Environmental Politics, Global Policy, Third World Quarterly, and Environmental Politics further contribute to scholarship on NGO influence and state-based negotiations in global environmental politics. Recent publications stemmed from my postdoc at Carleton University as part of the Valuing Nature project. Here, we explored the rise and implementation of the ecosystem services project. A recent publication in Global Environmental Politics introduces the concept of practical fit, to explain why practitioners struggle to implement ecosystem services projects. My research employs a range of methods, such as participant observation, social network analysis, and interviews.
I am a Strategic Advisor and Team Leader for the Earth Negotiations Bulletin – the de facto record of global environmental negotiations. Since 2011, I have attended dozens of UN conferences where states negotiate the rules of global climate governance, as well as chemicals and wastes management.
I received my PhD from the University of British Columbia in May 2017. The dissertation was based on a unique database on NGO participation in the UN climate change negotiations. Before beginning my PhD, I worked as a Project Manager for the Clean Air Strategic Alliance in Alberta, mediating consensus among representatives from business, government, and NGOs. I was a Project Assistant for a global forest project at the global conservation NGO IUCN 2005-2006 in Bangkok. My MA is in International Development and Politics from the University of Guelph.
