My research interests lie in the field of Biodiversity Conservation and Agriculture, particularly to understand the linkages and trade-offs for conservation and agriculture in the context of developing countries. In my Dphil/PhD research I am using interdisciplinary approaches to address the the question of how food systems and production can be changed to meet the needs of the growing human population, and how biodiversity goals can be achieved without compromising peoples food security.
I am a 2014 AWARD fellow for African women in science, funded by Malawi government, World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and University of Oxford's Zoology Department.
