This is Mansoor Khalighi from Iran. I majored in Natural resources (PhD in sociology of natural resources)Rang management) with social facilitating trend at Tehran University and I graduated last year.
I have had some experiences in IUCN (ceesp) and The research institute for rangelands and forest in Iran.
I have lived in the most important nomadic territories of Ghashghayi in Iran for long time and carried out my PhD dissertation and also IUCN projects.
My research experiences include Policy and decision making in natural resources, community-based and collaborative natural resource management, criticizing government management (which are normally leads without participation of local communities), indigenous ecological and management knowledge, participatory action research and etc. .
I am also photographer, painter and sculptor and have made lots of statue for the national botanic garden in Iran and other public parks.
I should mention that i don’t have very opportunities to work in Iran because of my social activities.
Therefore I am searching for a good place to continue my education as a postdoc student or any other opportunities and I am ready to work in deprived societies.
I appreciate your early consideration. Thanks very much in advance.
regards
Mansoor
