A LITTLE ABOUT ME
I am a social anthropologist, researcher and advisor with 12+ years of experience across Sub-Saharan Africa and Europe, and in global research and policy spaces.
My work focuses on gender-based and conflict-related sexual violence, sexual and reproductive health and rights, displacement, and the longer-term effects of violence and inequality. My research is rooted in long-term ethnographic work, exploring how people navigate care, health, identity and belonging in humanitarian, development and post-conflict settings.
Alongside research, I work with NGOs, UN agencies and community-based organisations to translate complex social realities into thoughtful, ethical and practically useful action.
I am especially interested in what happens beyond the immediate moment: how violence, inequality and environmental change continue to shape people’s lives over time, and what this means for care, responsibility and intergenerational justice.
