Research Overview

I am a human geographer with interests in environmental management and rural cultures. My research focuses on rural areas, particularly on cultural and social aspects of land management, land use change, and environmental conflict. In my research I aim to bridge conventional natural resource management research and research on cultures of nature. I am interested in how people occupy landscapes and seek to inhabit, use, protect, and conserve those landscapes, usually simultaneously, and in ways that defy neat compartmentalisation of these activities.

My past research has encompassed pastoral culture and land in Central Australia, Indigenous pastoral enterprises, heritage, and history, the cultural politics of bushfire management and prescribed burning, regenerative grazing, and household sustainability. I have been interested in natural resource management and stewardship in rural areas characterised by lifestyle-oriented rural landholders. This has led to research on weeds, biosecurity, and bushfire management. I am still pursuing such research and have also been researching biosecurity management and recreation in the Kosciuszko National Park area in collaboration with the NSW NPWS.
