I have 15 years of professional experiences in disaster risk management and vulnerability assessment, climate change adaptation and regional model, natural resource and environmental economics research, biodiversity research, community participation, community action research, environmental education, and wetlands management in the lower Mekong basin. My areas of specialisation are community based natural resources management (CBNRM), economic tools for conservation, and economic valuation of natural resource and environment. I also have extensive experiences in the fieldwork and policy research. Before joining the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI), I worked as outreach officer for Mekong Wetlands Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Use Programme (MWBP) in Songkhram demonstration site, Thailand.
