Summer Environmental StudyEva Coleman
2022 The Elizabeth Gardner Norweb Summer Environmental Studies Scholarship

Eastern Himalayan Forests and Biodiversity
Coleman will conduct summer studies in Bhutan at the Ugyen Wangchuck Institute for Conservation and Environment Research. Coleman will investigate how rural development and local knowledge systems affect Bhutan’s natural-resource management. Coleman will conduct forest inventories, collect data from camera traps, and record the ecological and cultural aspects of the landscapes. Coleman believes it is crucial for Bhutan, as one of the most biodiverse countries, to survey and protect these resources as industrialization grows.
