I am an environmental specialist with a focus on ecosystem service valuation (the process of assessing ecosystems' contributions to sustainable human wellbeing) and protected area management. I received a PhD in 2022 and Master of Environmental Management in 2017 from the Australian National University, and a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Economics in 2015 from the Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, China. I also studied in the University of Tokyo, Japan, as a short-term exchange student in early 2017.
I am now a postdoctoral researcher participating at an ecosystem service assessment project sponsored by the US Forest Service of the Department of Agriculture. Previously, I did internships with the UNEP Convention on Biological Diversity Secretariat in 2021 and the Convention on Migratory Species Secretariat in 2018 to contribute to global environmental governance, including development of a toolkit to assess effectiveness of biodiversity policies.
I have presented my research at several international academic conferences or forums, such as the 10th World Conference of Ecosystem Services Partnership, Hannover, Germany (21 Oct. 2019 – 25 Oct. 2019), and the Ecological Economics and Eco-civilization International Forum, Beijing, China (15 Nov. 2019 – 16 Nov. 2019)

Catherine L. Ward is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Cape Town, South Africa. She holds a PhD in Clinical-Community Psychology from the University of South Carolina, USA. Her research interests are in violence prevention from the perspective of children’s development, and particularly in public health approaches to this – in developing evidence-based approaches to violence prevention that have a wide reach and are effective in improving children’s development and reducing their likelihood of becoming aggressive. Much of her current work is focused on preventing child maltreatment, and on understanding the epidemiology of risk factors faced by children, especially in low- and middle-income countries. In line with this, she is one of the developers of the Parenting for Lifelong Health suite of programmes that aim to support parents to raise non-violent children in non-violent homes (see https://www.who.int/violence_injury_prevention/violence/child/plh/en/ for details).
