Dr Nick Mount (Geography) works as part of the Law and Policy programme, with a focus on socio-environmental approaches to slavery and conflict. He is currently working on the Choco region of Colombia, where slavery and child labour is endemic in communities impacted by armed actors who are engaged in widespread, illegal alluvial gold mining. He is uncovering the fundamental intersection between armed conflict, illegal environmental exploitation, and slavery within the Chocoan communities. His broader expertise is the understanding, analysis and management of hydrological and river systems.
