About

Trained as an anthropologist, I work on social and institutional analysis, social and institutional development, and capacity building - specifically in natural resource management, including in agriculture, coastal zone management, fisheries, and pastoralism/rangeland. I have a focus on strategic communication, knowledge mgmt., information and communication technology and development (ICT4D), participation, and poverty/social impact analysis. I have 25 years of experience in operations and policy work for, inter alia, Dutch Aid, IFAD, IFC, Norad, Sida, UNDP, UNOPS, and World Bank, in a number of countries in South Asia, Southeast Asia, Middle East, and Africa (for details, see my CV/resume available above).

I manage a consultancy firm, Supras Consult (www.supras.biz), registered in Norway, that work on these issues. I am also the Coordinator for the Community-Based Natural Resource Management Network (CBNRM Net, www.cbnrm.net), a global community of practice (COP) for several hundred persons, institutions, and organizations that work on CBNRM and related approaches, as practitioners, managers, funders and researchers.
