Ecosystem Services & Poverty Alleviation in Kenya

Submitted a "Partership and Project Development" proposal to DFID's call for research to "Ecosystem Services and Poverty Alleviation." I would work with The Nature Conservancy-Africa and the Green Belt Movement to develop a project modeling the socio-ecological system on the edge of Kenya's Mau Forest. Key would be the distinction between the human-environment connection in intervention villages (with reforestation and alternative livelihood efforts) and villages without such programs. We should hear results in early summer!
