Eric Des Marais

I am a doctoral candidate at the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work. My research focuses on social adaptation and migration, especially in relation to climate change. I am particularly interested in what successful migration looks like from a social ecological systems perspective; that is, from the perspective of how social systems are linked to ecosystems. I believe a better understanding of the interplay of coupled social and ecological systems is key to human success in the 21st Century.
