In research the focus is mainly on land use policy, land use conflicts, especially focusing on common pool resources, governance issues, ecosystem services and forest policy, especially evaluation of forest policy. Currently Camilla is involved in three main research projects:
1. Coordintor of a FP 7 ERA-NET SUMFOREST financed project POLYFORES (Decision-making Support for Forest Ecosystem Services in Europe) is starting December 2016. The project is interdisciplinary combining ecologic, economic and governance theories to study forest-based ecosystem services. The project is ending during 2021.
2. A MISTRA funded project - Mistra Digital Forest - that started February 2019. The project is studying how digitalisation in forestry can help develop bioeconomy development, combining forest data analysis, forest logistics and forest value-chain. The first phase of the project is ending December 2022.
3. ONEforest - an EU Horizon 2020 (LC-RUR-11-2019-2020) project that was approved in December 2020, and starts June 2021. The project is targeting the rapid chaning climatic conditions (drought, rein, storms, pests and forest fires), addressing these by studying future silviculture management concepts, forest operations and wood supply, all stakeholders along the Forest Wood Value Chain to form a common idea of future forest management, while none of them can increase its benefit without harming another one. Camilla is leading one workpackage. The project ends by June 2024.
