Dear colleagues,

urban land use planning (e.g. zoning), urban nature, policy advocacy,
climate adaptation, and environmental justice, connected to the
Minneapolis-St. Paul Long-term Ecological Research site. More info is
here: z.umn.edu/PhD-urban-nature-governance-ad, we'll begin reviewing
applications on November 20. Please pass it along to anyone you know who
might be interested in this type of PhD (or who would have students who
would be interested).
Thanks!
Forrest & Meghan
