Working with The Nature Conservancy’s Conservation and Poverty Reduction Project, I led and supported analysis of multiple socioeconomic surveys from the Raja Ampat Islands in eastern Indonesia on the use of marine resources and perceptions of conservation. This work resulted in a number of outputs including:
