Conservation and management of anguillid eels

My work involves informing conservation, management and policy of anguillid eels with relevant science. These species have a complex life history that requires transboundary collaboration of relevant actors to address a range of threats in their management. Further, there are multiple social, economic and cultural considerations that need to be accounted for in their management. My work has included fundamental research, such as tagging studies, through to providing advice to policymakers. I have a particular interest in the species-focused UN Conventions, CITES and CMS, and work with relevant actors on matters relating to anguillid eels, and associated cross-cutting issues.
