Research Associates

NRCC has nearly two dozen research associates engaged in ecological and policy research, educational activities, and hands-on intervention in natural resource conservation programs and policy making. Most of NRCC's research associates work for other organizations: nongovernmental organizations, government agencies, and universities. Their affiliation with NRCC gives them a wider range of opportunities to carry out more integrative, interdisciplinary, conservation work. Our people combine broad practical experience with rigorous academic training, and they bring a variety of insights from disciplines ranging from conservation biology to policy sciences.

NRCC considers partnerships with researchers around the globe who have similarly- aligned interests. Generally, our researchers exhibit a keen awareness of social and policy issues associated with ecological problems. Additionally, they are carrying out vital policy or ecological research that may not otherwise be done. Our framework of thinking is unique among conservation organizations, and we strive to help our researchers achieve their goals and secure positive conservation outcomes.
