Research, consultancy and strategy work
I am committed to working with policy makers and practitioners in the UK and globally. I work with leading humanitarian and development organisations to jointly develop and deliver on their research needs, evaluate projects and programs and provide strategic advice and support. In support of this, I have also developed collaborative PhD projects, bridging academic and policy and practice knowledges.

In recent years, I have worked with global and local organisations including the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, Habitat for Humanity International, VSO, FORUM, Christian Aid, United Nations Volunteers, the Swedish Red Cross and MUKTI.

How I work
I actively work to challenge hierarchies around who is a ‘researcher’ or ‘knowledge’ producer by convening inclusive and cross-sectoral teams to develop projects. As part of this, I am committed to doing all I can to enable global South voice and power in leading, designing and delivering research.
 
In designing academic research projects, I work to include policy and practice organisations from the outset in conception, design, delivery and implementation, ensuring the research has relevance and impact.
 
I work hard to share research findings and insight through speeches, moderating discussions, facilitating workshops and events, and through resources including policy briefs and interactive games. If you would like me to talk about my research or engage in other ways, send me an email.
