I am a physical geographer and sustainability scientist, and my main interests are to develop interdisciplinary research approaches to understand complex sustainability challenges.

I have developed and co-developed a range of research projects where contribute with my specific knowledge about participatory visual methods for futures thinking and visioning, as well as the integration of mixed qualitative and quantitative methods. Finished and ongoing projects are:

• “Visualizing the future – charting pathways for sustainable development with participatory art and scenario thinking”, based at LUCSUS at Lund University, IFRO at Copenhagen University, and Sokoine University of Agriculture in Tanzania.
• “NATURICE - Changing social and cultural values of nature: Exploring plural values of human-nature relationships in glacierized environments” (PI: Mine Islar).
• “Carbon farming as a climate measure: a farmer perspective” (PI: Elina Andersson). 
• "AgroDrive - omställning till fossilfri energi i Sveriges jordbruks- och livsmedelssystem, för förbättrad konkurrenskraft, högre motståndskraft och bättre klimat" (PI: Johanna Olsson, RISE)

My research interests are mainly to study drivers and effects of land use change in areas where land is acquired by foreign agribusinesses, focusing on how people are affecting – and affected by – changes in land and water availability. Land use change is driven by multiple interconnected societal and environmental processes, which act on different scales in time and space.

For my PhD thesis I applied mixed methods to analyze 'land grabbing' from a global to local scale. The global to continental scale of analysis is quantitative and relates to the global connectivity of land acquisitions and changes in water supply and demand, while the local studies are qualitative and use participatory art to understand local perceptions of socio-environmental change, and future aspirations for change.

Prior to the Post Doc, I was engaged in a research project where we estimated changes in terrestrial carbon in Cambodia. Cambodia is a country that is experiencing rapid and extensive deforestation that can be partly linked to land grabbing. We mapped the changes in carbon pools in space and through time, and also mapped where the carbon loss is virtually exported.
