Elson Ian Nyl Ebreo Galang

I hold a BSc Agriculture major in Landscape Agroforestry (cum laude) from the University of the Philippines Los Baños, where I did an undergraduate thesis exploring the social-ecological resilience of traditional silvopastoral systems. I then finished a Master of Science in Sustainability from the United Nations University- Institute for the Advanced Study of Sustainability in Tokyo, Japan, where I did my master's thesis on exploring generational perspectives on ecosystem services from agroforestry watersheds. Currently, I am a Ph.D. candidate at McGill University, where I am doing a Ph.D. dissertation on co-imagining the environmental futures of Canada's key social-ecological landscapes. I am an environmental social scientist whose main works revolve around participatory approaches for natural resource management, the social dimension of ecosystem services, and outcomes of collaboration for sustainability.
