Jennifer is currently engaged in several research projects around the themes of food, agriculture, and the environment. One is a study of the rise of megacompanies and corporate concentration in the agrifood systems, and the implications for the environment, food justice, and the international governance of food and agriculture and the environment. A second project is focused on the sustainability challenge for the global governance of food and agriculture. This project examines the environmental dimensions of the global agricultural trade, investment, aid and financial regimes. These projects may provide opportunities for one or two research assistantships.
