Dr. Campbell's research interests focus primarily upon the relationship between various forms of nature based tourism, outdoor recreation and the environment in which these activities takes place. In this context the environment is viewed very broadly and includes the physical (abiotic), living (biotic), and social (cultural) spheres. As such a good deal of his work is focused upon mitigating impacts in natural environments and the human dimensions of wildlife and natural resources. Dr. Campbell has recently completed a six year CIDA project to develop a Masters Degree program in collaboration with the Wildlife and Animal Resource Management Department of Makerere University in Uganda, the Uganda Wildlife Authority and Uganda Tourism Board. In addition to the Masters degree a key element of the project is the development of community tourism initiatives in regions and communities surrounding national parks in Uganda.
