Me in Brief

I am currently doing my Masters Degree thesis at the University of British Columbia with a focus on socially responsible investment. The purpose of my research is to examine UBC’s efforts to set up an advisory committee on SRI. To do this I will analyze a range of values, beliefs and priorities of UBC constituents regarding the integration of a SRI framework to the University’s investment practice. This analysis can be useful to ensure that the management of the University’s endowment reflects values expressed by UBC stakeholders.
