My research explores emerging/protracted crises and the actors involved. From 2020, I have been exploring humanitarianism, innovation and how 'people on the move' are governed by the digital and the financial. Please see glitchspaces.org. I utilize interdisciplinary and creative methods in (co)creating knowledge and am particularly keen to ensure that my (co)-produced research has relevance and traction within policy and practice. Please see www.grripp.net
My international development work, primarily with United Nations agencies (International Labour Organisation and United Nations Development Programme), focused on livelihoods and local economic development in several countries. There has always been a clear gendered focus within my UN work and within my academic research. My academic career has been an opportunity to engage critically with gender, risk, migration, urban resilience, community as well as natural hazards.
