- Copyeditor and project manager, Transformational Change for People and the Planet: Evaluating Environment and Development, Juha I. Uitto and Geeta Batra, editors. (Springer, 2021, open access) On the pressing question of how to achieve transformational change that reconciles development with environmental sustainability, this book addresses the role of evaluation in finding sustainable solutions, applicable to fields including climate change mitigation and adaptation, energy efficiency and renewable energy, natural resources management, and biodiversity conservation.
- Editor, Environmental Evaluation and Global Development Institutions: A Case Study of the Global Environment Facility, by Geeta Batra, Juha I. Uitto, and Osvaldo Feinstein. (Routledge, 2021, open access) Despite technological progress and high-profile international agreements—such as the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change—trends still point to the possibility of disastrous outcomes and the urgency needed to avoid them. Evaluation is increasingly important for finding sustainable solutions based on a systematic analysis of what works, for whom, and under what circumstances.
