Robin Naidoo's work with the Conservation Science Program involves integrating economic costs and benefits into ecoregion planning, and more generally the use of environmental economics in conservation science. On the costs side, Robin has worked on mapping the costs of conservation at both landscape (at the Mbaracayu Biosphere Reserve in Paraguay) and global scales. On the benefits side, he is working at these same scales on quantifying the economic value of ecosystem services to people. Robin received his Ph.D from the University of Alberta with the co-supervision of professors in the Biology and Rural Economy departments, and his work has been published in peer-reviewed journals in both economics and ecology.
