Event Information
We are pleased to invite you to a special edition of the EfD webinar series.
This month, we are trying a different format. Rather than a traditional seminar presentation, this session will be highly interactive and discussion-oriented. We invite participants to come prepared to briefly share their research interests, ongoing work, or thoughts, or policy-engagement experiences related to afforestation, reforestation, forest restoration, and other connected areas such as energy, water, agriculture, ecosystem services, climate policy, and economic development.
Participants are also encouraged to discuss practical, methodological, institutional, or policy-related challenges they encounter in their work. The objective is to foster an open exchange of ideas and identify new perspectives, collaborations, and possible approaches to addressing shared challenges.
About the Discussion Leader
The discussion will be led by Prof. Jeffrey R. Vincent, Clarence F. Korstian Professor of Forest Economics and Management at Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment.
Prof. Vincent is an internationally recognized environmental and resource economist whose work has significantly shaped research and policy discussions on forests, natural resource management, and sustainable development, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Over his distinguished career, he has held academic appointments at leading institutions, including Duke University, Harvard University, and the University of California, San Diego, and has advised governments and international organizations on issues related to conservation, forest policy, and climate mitigation.
His broad interdisciplinary experience across environmental economics, policy analysis, and sustainability makes this a valuable opportunity for open dialogue across the EfD community.
