Sustainability Research in Nicaragua

In the fall semester of 2017 I was in northern Nicaragua working on a Fulbright research project on the environmental history of the community of Sabana Grande.  For more details, please check out our blog, and a short overview in the American Society for Environmental History Winter 2017 Newsletter.  See Research section for peer-reviewed work that has been published on this work.
