Leveraging Biodiversity Net Gain to address invertebrate declines in England
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) is a new approach to infrastructural development in England, mandating that developers achieve a 10% BNG by enhancing and creating habitats. As currently implemented, BNG risks creating smaller, homogeneous, structurally simple and poorly connected habitats.

Representing, Re‐presenting, or Producing the Past? Memory Work amongst Museum Employees
Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.Abstract Though it is widely understood that the past can be an important resource for organizations, less is known about the micro‐level skills and choices that help to materialize different representations of the past. We understand these micro‐level skills and choices as a practice: ‘memory work’ – a banner term gathering various activities that ...
