Tara Grillos studies how governance and institutional design affect environmental and natural resource management, particularly in developing countries. Her work often uses field experiments and randomized trials to examine topics like decentralization, community participation, payments for ecosystem services, gender inclusion, and public sector accountability, drawing on cases from Kenya, Honduras, Nepal, Bolivia, Indonesia, Peru, and Tanzania. This research bridges environmental science, political science, and public administration.
Publication output rose sharply from 2017 to a peak around 2020, then declined and became more variable in recent years, with a modest uptick in 2025-2026.
