Research ✻

Joycelyn’s doctoral research at the University of Cambridge centred on the participatory design of justice-led conservation technologies for the conservation of tropical forest ecosystems. Working with bioacoustic technology and a forest community in Ghana, she employed ethnographic methods, participatory design, and machine learning to contribute insights and practices to the emerging field of Conservation Data Justice. She has presented my research to a wide range of institutions and audiences, such as the Geographical Association and the University of Oxford, as well as through her 2023 TEDxLondon Talk.
