My main research interests are environmental politics, civil society, public participation, democratization and development aid in post-socialist states. Geographically, my research has especially focused on Armenia, the South Caucasus, Russia, and more recently Poland. I have carried out a number of program evaluations of Norwegian and Western support mechanisms in the region, ranging from cultural exchange programs to deployment of security personnel in conflict zones. New areas of interest are the management of plant genetic resources in the post-Soviet area and new modes of mobility in urban development.
