I spent a very productive and fruitful time at IISL. The library provides an excellent environment for focused work, from which I have benefited greatly. During the month I spent here, I mainly worked on my postdoctoral project on law and natural resources and made great progress.
Many thanks to the IISL team for their friendly welcome and support in all matters.
