Biography

After graduating in Pacific and African history from Otago University, I studied at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa and worked as an archaeologist and for Television New Zealand, before completing my MA at Otago and PhD at the Australian National University (ANU). I taught at Otago, Victoria University of Wellington and James Cook University in Queensland before joining ANU in 2006. I currently teach and publish on environmental conflict resolution, sustainable development and climate change mitigation in the Asia Pacific Region in the College of Asia and the Pacific’s Department of Pacific Affairs at the ANU.
