Justine T. Nwanakwere

Welcome!

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) and a Fellow of the UNH Sustainability Institute. I am currently in the 2024/2025 job market. My research areas include environmental economics, applied microeconomics, non-market valuation, and public policy. Also, I have a minor in health economics. My research explores the economic dynamics of habitat conservation, dam removal, and sustainable development, with a focus on actionable insights for policy and community impact. I am passionate about advancing economic knowledge that fosters both environmental sustainability and societal well-being, with a background that includes teaching, mentorship, and collaborative research funded by institutions like the Ford Foundation and the African Development Bank. Here, you’ll find more about my research, teaching, and ongoing projects—thanks for visiting!
