Biography

I am social scientist by training. My expertise is in rural development from perspectives of resource governance, local livelihood strategy and natural resource management, with an empirical focus on agroforestry. With this interdisciplinary approach, my recent research fields are consisted of four empirical study aspects that has been applied in the wide geographical locations which including North Korea, China and Southeast Asian. That includes:  

  1. Farming System and Agroforestry Ecology with focus on participatory agroforestry species selection and domestication, crop-soil-water interaction etc.;  
  2. Forest Governance with focus on decentralization, forest tenure reform, customary institutions etc.; 
  3. Rural Market Access and Structure with focus on commodity chain/value chain analysis;
  4. Local Livelihood Strategies with focus on household economics and agrarian transformation.

Key Research Interests

Rural development from perspectives of resource governance, local livelihood strategy and natural resource management, with an empirical focus on agroforestry.
