Expertise

My research focuses on the conditions under which governance arrangements lead to the reduction of vulnerability and the enhancement of resilience of people exposed to climate-related and other hazards.  It has involved mainly a comparative approach whereby case studies are drawn from contexts as diverse as South-East Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and Europe.  Characterised by mixed qualitative and quantitative methods and co-production with local partners, my research is ultimately informed by a disciplinary background rooted in political science, law and sociology.
