Pamela Jagger is an applied economist in the Department of Public Policy. She conducts research on the livelihood impacts of natural resource management policies, programs and projects in sub-Saharan Africa, with a particular interest in institutional innovations and institutional change in the forestry sector. Her research is specifically focused on understanding the heterogeneous impacts of changes in natural resource management. She is currently engaged in two global comparative studies: the first is focused on understanding the relationship between forest dependence and poverty in the low income tropics; the second is examining the livelihood impacts of first generation reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) projects. Current micro level research is focused on the importance of migrant pit-saw logging to rural livelihoods, and understanding the livelihoods impacts of a major forest sector reform, both in Uganda.
