Amy Hinsley

I’m a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford.

My research focuses on understanding how and why people use, trade and value different wildlife species. I’m really interested in understanding why people choose to participate in the wildlife trade as consumers or traders, and how we can best balance the needs of people and the needs of nature in order to make sure that trade remains sustainable.
