Project

PhD research position in the field of Environmental and Bio-science Engineering

Within the VSS4F/WOOD project, I focus on the environmental impacts of voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) in Indonesia. Using a database on VSS coverage, I will investigate the effects of VSS on land use and forest conservation. Furthermore, my PhD will include a biodiversity inventory of certified and non-certified plantations in Indonesia to assess the environmental effects of VSS.
