I hope to be involved in projects that aim to gather scientific evidence to inform environmental decision making and advocate for greater equity and justice in environmental governance. Through this work, I hope to learn the skills needed to engage in community based research and leverage community knowledge as expert knowledge. In my department, things are often siloed and issues are only seen through one perspective. I really want to gain more experience in collaborating with a wide array of stakeholders to come up with approaches to mitigate the environmental injustices experienced in under-resourced communities.

After a month of monitoring, it has been determined that concentrations of PM10 and sedimentable particles exceeded Ecuadorian and international standards.
We used two particulate matter (PM) monitoring networks, while sharing with neighbors the chemical components of PM and its impacts on health.
