Associate Professor Environmental Forestry, Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria (FRIN).--- https://orcid.org/- https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Ayodotun-Bobadoye https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=3EBM7zwAAAAJ&hl=en Personal Statement I am a fast-adapting and flexible academic and researcher with over 18 years research experience in different countries. I am equipped with strong interpersonal relationship, unrelenting team spirit, analytic and critical mind-set, strategic planning, result-oriented, strong partnership as well as exemplary leadership and people management skills. I hold a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc). degree in Animal Science (University of Ibadan, Nigeria), Masters in Animal Production and Health (Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria), Executive Masters Project Management (Project Management College London), and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Climate Change and Adaptation (Institute for Climate Change and Adaptation, University of Nairobi, Kenya). I am an Associate Professor of Environmental Forestry at the Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria (FRIN); I am also the Chief Operating Officer at Global Emerging Pathogens Treatment Consortium (GET) from 2017 till date. GET comprises of a pan African group of concerned academics and policy makers in collaboration with international partners who are focused on reducing Africa’s vulnerability to biosecurity threats. I was a Research Officer at the African Technology and Policy Studies Network (ATPS) Nairobi, Kenya. I am a scholar of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, Washington, DC, USA; and, a post-doctoral scholar at the West Africa Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL) Competency Centre, Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. I am currently a consultant to the Lagos State government in Nigeria on climate change and health. I have successfully led and implemented several key national and international projects in the field of climate change and health and biosecurity. My responsibilities included leading global discussions on relevant issues which include being a member of Nigeria Delegation and speaker at the Climate Change Conference of parties (COP 25) held in Madrid Spain 1n 2019; Climate Change Conference of parties (COP 26) held in Glasgow Scotland in 2021; and Climate Change Conference of parties (COP 28) held in Dubai United Arab Emirate in 2023. I am one of the expert reviewers for the Internal Draft of the Working Group III (WGIII) contribution to the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) of the IPCC in 2019; and an Advisor for the African Regional Consultation on Climate Change and Health World Health Organization and the Global Climate and Health Alliance. My research in climate change and adaptation has focused on understanding and analyzing the changing climatic conditions and its impact on communities, systems and sectors. My Post-doctoral research focused on “Assessing vulnerability to climate change and the impact of drought on vegetation productivity in West Africa”. I analyzed vulnerability of West African countries to climate change and developed climate change vulnerability map for West Africa. I also assessed the vegetative variation over West Africa Using NDVI. My PhD research was on Vulnerability assessment of Maasai pastoralist under changing climatic condition and their adaptation strategies in Kajiado County. I developed climate change vulnerability map for Kajiado County in Kenya and worked with pastoralist communities to developed adaptation strategies to climate change and climate variability. My expertise extends to policy analysis, review, and development, where I have actively engaged with stakeholders at various levels, including government agencies, non-profit organizations, and community groups. I led the team that developed the West Africa Biosecurity policy for the West Africa Health Organization (WAHO). I was one of the expert speakers at the 1st Global Partnership Working Group (GPWG) meeting against weapon of mass destruction, under the Japanese G7 Presidency in Tokyo, Japan. During the meeting, I presented a proposal on ‘Strengthening Health-Security-Legal interface to Enhance Implementation of Biological Weapon Convention (BWC) in West Africa’. I was also the only non-state actor from Africa that spoke at the United Nations Committee Established Pursuant to Resolution 1540 (2004) Open Consultations on the Comprehensive Review of the implementation of the resolution held at the United Nations building in New York, USA. I am a well-traveled researcher that can function effectively in a multilingual and multi-ethnic working environment. I have worked in different international organizations in Nairobi Kenya; Washington DC; USA; Ouagadougou Burkina-Faso and Nigeria. I have been keynote speaker and guest speaker in conferences and meetings in about 20 different countries. I have published over 70 articles (journals, policy briefs, technical papers, international reports, and books and book chapters) in reputable platforms. I am also an expert reviewer to journals, international organization such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and international grant awarding organizations such as The Regional Scholarship and Innovation Fund (RSIF). My administrative skills have helped me succeed in several positions over the years, including the Chief Operating Officer and Head at the Global Emerging Pathogens Treatment Consortium (GET). I was also the Deputy Provost at Federal College of Forestry in Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria. I have taught and supervised many students at the Federal College of Forestry. I have also been awarded research grants and consultancies in different countries. A trusted team player reputed for facilitating strategic decisions, and driving implementations successfully, I take delight in group facilitation, and I am always ready to provide guidance, leadership, and support services. I look forward to more challenging roles that will further task my natural abilities for outstanding delivery in teaching, research, and management.

Research Focus I am transdisciplinary researcher that has focused on understanding and analyzing the changing climatic conditions and its impact on communities, systems and sectors, especially the impact of climate change on health and Emerging infectious diseases. . I am also working with communities and sectors at the national, regional and international levels to enhance their resilience to climate change. Using the one health approach, I am working on understanding the link between climate change and biodiversity loss on increase in frequency and intensity of emerging infectious diseases and other forms of biosecurity threats in Africa. One of my research focus in the last few years is understanding vulnerability to climate change and variability. I am currently working on analyzing vulnerability of the health system in Lagos state to climate change and developing a health vulnerability map for the state. I analyzed vulnerability of West African countries to climate change and developed climate change vulnerability map for West Africa. I also assessed the vegetative variation over West Africa Using NDVI. My PhD research was on Vulnerability assessment of Maasai pastoralist under changing climatic condition and their adaptation strategies in Kajiado County. I developed climate change vulnerability map for Kajiado County in Kenya and worked with pastoralist communities to developed adaptation strategies to climate change and climate variability. My research focus extends to policy analysis, policy review and policy development. I led the team that developed the biosecurity policy for West Africa. I am currently developing the climate change and health policy for Lagos state, Nigeria. I have been involved in many international policy dialogues in climate change and biosecurity.
