Lisa Deutsch's research focuses on the couplings between the ecological effects of globalization of food production systems and national policy and economic accounts
Deutsch's research examines the couplings between the ecological effects of globalization of food production systems and national policy and economic accounts. She particularly focuses on the ways in which global trade can change the mix of inputs to food and feed by estimating the ecosystem subsidies needed to support intensive livestock and aquaculture production systems. She also enjoys tracing and mapping food flows to cities to explore how cities feed themselves.
Her work contributes to the development of a set of complementary tools that can be used in economic accounting at national and international scales that address ecosystem support and performance.
Deutsch was an Adjunct Fellow of the Australian National University within the Fenner School of Environment & Society 2008–2011. She continues her work in the UN-sponsored LEAD-SCOPE project 'Livestock in a Changing Landscape' as an expert advisor.
