Day 19 – Saturday, 6 November 2010
In sum, I was in Papua New Guinea for 2 1/2 weeks, conducting a pilot study for my PhD to test out my data collection method. While it was a very difficult trip in terms of logistics and personal comforts, hygiene, etc., I'm glad I did it, but also relieved that I can now move to the analysis of my many filled in 12-page questionnaires.

This blog contains information about some of my research and international fieldwork projects. It features selected local-level interviews with individual respondents, including photos and stories. These eyewitness accounts suggest that several climate change impacts are already being felt by numerous developing communities. By engaging with affected communities at grassroots level the research seeks to raise policy options for more equitable climate change adaptation processes and outcomes.
