Ruth Metzel, M.E.M./M.B.A. '16 and a 2015 TRI Fellow, is one of three students from the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies (F&ES) to have have received 2016-17 Gruber Fellowships in Global Justice and Women’s Rights for their work on projects in vulnerable parts of the world.
 
During her Fellowship, Ruth Metzel will work with the Azuero Earth Project in Panama, which connects smallholder farmers and landowners to the global climate finance landscape. The Azuero peninsula is one of the most drought-prone regions of Central America. But while its farmers are becoming increasingly interested in reforestation, national and international finance landscapes are difficult to navigate.
