Dr David Godden
Summary
Good economics policy research of natural resource use, including agriculture.
Research interests
Current research interests include ecosystem services and modelling air pollution abatement.
Background
I was a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Agriculture 1990-2002, and managed an economics policy unit in the NSW Government 2002-2011 (originally in the National Parks and Wildlife Service, and subsequently in an agency with a variety of names, currently called the Office of Environment and Heritage within the Department of Premier and Cabinet).
I have degrees from the University of New England (BAgEc, BA, MEc) and the University of London (PhD, London School of Economics and Political Science).
