Senior Fellow; Natural Capital Insights

Adrian L. Vogl

Adrian Vogl (she/her) is a founder and Principal Researcher at Natural Capital Insights. Adrian’s work crosses the spectrum of researchers, policymakers, development professionals, and civil society groups in Latin America, Africa, South and Central Asia, and the US, to advance the science and practice of ecosystem services and nature-based solutions for water security. Her work is problem-driven, with an emphasis on developing standardized approaches, tailored tools, and building capacity to assess and map ecosystem services and their values, and connect these benefits to communities. Adrian holds a Ph.D. in Aquatic Resources from Texas State University-San Marcos and a B.A. in Cultural Anthropology from the University of Arizona.
