Leon’s research interest cuts across agriculture, mangrove restoration, community-focused conservation and entomology. Currently he is working towards his PhD and is being supervised by Chris Short and Dr Philip Staddon of the CCRI. He is also active in the development and implementation of conservation management policies. He contributes to the work of several non-governmental agencies functioning in Grenada and the wider Caribbean.
