Our research group, led by Dr. Jessica Dempsey at the University of British Columbia (UBC), is recruiting graduate students at both the Masters and Doctoral level interested in working on profit-oriented biodiversity finance. Our project – briefly outlined at www.blogs.ubc.ca/biodiversitycapital <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.blogs.ubc.ca_biodiversitycapital&d=DwMFaQ&c=imBPVzF25OnBgGmVOlcsiEgHoG1i6YHLR0Sj_gZ4adc&r=OQK-rUOSxZb1DCMVx2daiccvIApZuk08kpmS9a3hEvI&m=zY6IW6JLiJ54LDhd8pc7lCdgTj7Z0Cu1Mjh0URZQX4E&s=jEIJHwYIhX1vpou0Y3qRD_zdYyPZGzsL3vt4zhzbceY&e=> - is supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).
