Tschersich is interested in food and environmental governance, and ecological democracy. She investigates social-ecological transformations: political, socioeconomic, and cultural shifts resulting from attempts to address the ecological crisis.

She strives to understand the interplay between different levels of governance in these social-ecological transformations, and find ways to enhance democracy and justice in the governance of agri-food transitions.
