Team Leader Reducing Vulnerability in Pastoral Systems
About
Jan de Leeuw has worked in higher education and research in environmental science in a wide variety of environments around the world. He is now research team leader at ILRI in Nairobi, leading research on vulnerability in pastoral systems.
The research of Jan de Leeuw, which initially focussed on plant ecology, eco-hydrology and vegetation monitoring, broadened over the years to long term ecological research and environmental assessment and the application of earth observation in mapping and monitoring of environmental change. Later he developed interest in the contribution of geo-informatics and earth observation to support environmental policies.
The current work at ILRI builds on this, while studying pastoral livelihood systems and the impact of policies and drought relief and mitigating interventions in reducing vulnerabilities in these systems.
