Keith G. Tidball







Keith G. Tidball founded S.C.I. - Links Consulting in
2001. His areas of expertise include natural resources
management in post-conflict and post-disaster,
international research and scientific exchanges,
international agricultural and natural resources
development,  environmental security and conflict
resolution, urban ecology, community greening,
community resilience, and land use planning.

Tidball has been working with
Cornell University's   
Department of Natural Resources since 2003. He  
co-founded and served as Associate Director of the

Civic
Ecology Lab for ten years, working to connect
people with nature in urban contexts for purposes of
education, community restoration and regeneration,
and biodiversity conservation. His research in
Environmental Security, Community Based
Approaches to Natural Resource Management,
Community Resilience, and Urban Ecology pursues
questions such as: What roles can the field of natural
resources play in local, regional, national and
international strategic planning for post-conflict and
other potentially volatile transition scenarios? How
might community based natural resources
management knowledge and approaches be adapted
to enhance urban community resilience to catastrophe
or conflict? What roles might natural resources,
defined broadly, play in creating, enhancing, or
restoring societal equilibrium in urban environments?

Prior to his work at Cornell, Tidball worked in
Washington  DC at the
US Department of Agriculture
as an International Affairs Specialist in the
Foreign
Agriculture Service's Office of International
Cooperation and Development.
