Prof. David Paul Shaw's research over the last several years has focused around two key themes. Firstly, He has had a longstanding interest in rural change and environmental management. He has been actively involved in several projects that have investigated the new and emerging institutional arrangements being developed to help deliver sustainable development. Partnership approaches and understanding the policy impacts of new environmental techniques are the areas of contemporary interest. Secondly, he has developed a growing interest and expertise in comparative international planning studies. This started with a focus on the process of European integration and the impacts that this was having on spatial development and planning practices in member states of the European Union, and more recently particularly with reference now to new and emerging field of marine spatial planning. This interest in comparative planning has led to recent opportunities in the MENA countries region, notably Egypt and Saudi Arabia and Sharjah.
