Biography
My research and teaching interests focus on gender and development, particularly in the areas of gender equity and organisations, gender-based violence and labour migration. I’ve carried out field research in Lesotho and South Africa. In addition to my academic work, I have worked as a volunteer for WUSC and as a consultant for the Southern African Migration Project (SAMP) and Irish Aid, Lesotho.
