Research Interests:

My research connects three themes:

Institutions:

developing a social science theoretical approach to understanding how institutions (particularly for natural resource management) work.

Water governance:

scrutinising the nature of policies, how they travel and their impacts for distribution and access to water.

Livelihoods:

understanding the gendered everyday politics of livelihoods, access to services and resources, the dynamics of inclusion and exclusion.

Working from an inter-disciplinary base in international development studies I am interested in how improved understandings of these issues can inform interventions for progressive social change.

Short Biography:

In my work I draw on experience of jobs in planning and health service delivery (in the UK and in Zimbabwe) as well as academic posts in a variety of universities in the UK, Zimbabwe and Norway.
