People of Environmental Policy

The increasing globalisation of environmental issues, debates, practices and governance is reflected in the department's international research and education efforts, as well as in the variety of nationalities of our staff, PhD and MSc students.

Chair

The fundamental research at Wageningen University & Research is conducted by chair groups. Each chair group, under leadership of a professor / Chair Holder, has its own area of expertise. Meet the Chairholder and the team of this Chair Group.
