Louise Mercer

PhD Student, Northumbria University

I am a PhD student at Northumbria University, UK. Currently, my research centers on better understanding community-based monitoring of environmental change in the Canadian Arctic. Through my research, I hope to advance collaborative partnerships and capacity sharing to promote resilient and sustainable environmental monitoring approaches. In doing so, different capacities and insights from diverse knowledge systems are brought together to guide environmental monitoring toward appropriate and effective decision-making.
