Megan is the founder and course lead for Ecosystem Service Assessments, an intensive short course for practitioners given at Stockholm University. Megan holds a PhD in Sustainability Science from the Stockholm Resilience Centre at Stockholm University where she showed how social, geographic, and ecological dynamics relate to ecosystem service bundles. She advanced the ecosystem service bundle approach by testing accessible data, feasible methods and expanding comparability with other assessments.
