- Post Doctoral Research Fellow, School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry, The University of Queensland
I am a sociocultural anthropologist, my research interests include gender violence, refugee and migrant studies, social movements and institutions, and feminist theory. Prior to academia I worked in the human services for 15 years, mostly in domestic violence and refugee resettlement. My work therefore has a particular interest in critical praxis, focusing on strategies addressing gender violence at the level of policy, advocacy and front-line service delivery. My work seeks to examine the inclusion and exclusion of marginalised groups from mainstream systems and institutions, and explore what can be done differently to address social inequalities.
