Professor Brent Lovelock joined the department in 2000. He holds an honours degree in Forestry Science and his PhD explored visitor management in protected natural areas. Brent's research focuses on sustainable tourism development, addressing social and environmental outcomes. Much of his research has involved community based tourism, and how we can bring value to communities through tourism, and also on the visitor experience and impacts within natural areas. This has involved working with communities and in applied research with key stakeholders such as the Department of Conservation and Fish and Game New Zealand. Brent also has an interest in the ethics of tourism, his research exploring a number of ethical quandaries in tourism, including: the ethics of consumptive wildlife tourism (hunting and fishing); travel for medical and dental tourism; and also travel to politically-contested destinations. He has co-authored a text on these and related topics The Ethics of Tourism – Critical and Applied Perspectives. Brent sits on the editorial boards of Tourism Planning & Development, Journal of Ecotourism, and Human Dimensions of Wildlife.

Current tourism research projects
Bad Nature: The social dimensions of invasive species in New Zealand
Currently Brent is leading a Royal Society of New Zealand Marsden-funded project (2020–2023) exploring the relationships that different communities (e.g. tourists and the tourism industry, Māori, Pasifika, and recent immigrants and young people) have with invasive species in New Zealand and how this may affect future management of these species.
