Dr Divya Karnad
Senior Lecturer
Ecology and Conservation
I am an interdisciplinary researcher who works on marine conservation and social science. My research involves studies of marine conservation, especially of sharks and rays, fisheries management in the Global South, the geography of seafood, seafood commons, Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) fishing, Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) and participatory action research. Beyond research, I also work on conservation outreach and education. I promote marine conservation through , a sustainable seafood initiative that I co?founded to connect local fishers, chefs, and consumers to promote seasonal, sustainable and shark-safe seafood supply chains.
