Dr Margot Hurlbert’s research focus is on governance and climate change, energy and water; interrogating laws, policies and practices that will address both the problem of climate change and adaptation, and mitigation to the changing climate. She has participated in and led research projects focusing on aspects of governance including energy, water, agricultural producer livelihoods, drought, and flood. Her current passion is determining participatory governance mechanisms and constructing action-based imaginaries that help us achieve our Paris goals—net zero carbon emissions by 2050. The geographical focus of her research is western Canada and South America.
