The concept of power is intriguing to me, as it is inherent and impactful but yet often subtly overlooked. To overlook how difference can limit or amplify access is to overlook power. This form of delusion, strengthens the status quo. My research interest is embedded in addressing power in international aid, particularly in relation to decision making, governance and accountability to affected communities.
In my last professional assignment, I worked with more than 47 member agencies, both local and international in Bangladesh, to identify gaps in their accountability mechanisms and co-create an accountability framework. My work sparked my interest in exploring the political governance of aid and how representation is politicised, particularly related to power politics between local and international NGOs, community participation and broadly the economic and social costs of aid.

My research centers on environmental charities, in South Africa and internationally. Specifically, I am interrogating how these ENGOs are framing a just recovery from COVID-19, and what that recovery means for ENGO beneficiaries, employees, and donors â capturing the juxtaposition between large- and small-scale environmental charitable work. Ultimately, my project concerns itself with both projected and experienced âfuturesâ that emerge from development institutionsâ imaginaries, and so locates itself within the intersections of feminist political ecology, degrowth, eco-socialism, and post-development theory.

I am broadly interested in transboundary relations. Specifically, my research focuses on examining transboundary water relations from a political-economy perspective in the Fergana Valley, a densely populated region divided between the modern states of Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. By studying water, livelihoods, climate, and power relations, I hope to unveil who has access to and control over water and other crucial resources in the region.

My research interests centre around the military-industrial complex and the involvement of private military and security companies (PMCs/PSCs) in extractive industries. Situated in the context of extensive and continued environmental degradation, my research will consider what available information on PMCs/PSCs in extractive industries tells us about access to and control over resources.

My research interests lie in unpacking the contradictions inherent in the use of neoliberal ideas to drive development policies and planning in the Global South. I am studying the master planning of Bonifacio Global City in Manila, Philippines.I am doing so through the lens of political economy, which looks at the intersections of power in money in shaping the material world. I approach this study with almost a decade of experience working as an urban planner in the private and public sector across Asia and Canada.

I propose to explore the use of regenerative and no-till agriculture in Ontario and Quebec through research and interviews with farmers and government and non-governmental agencies involved in this work. I seek to better understand the motivations, challenges, and experiences of transitioning to this type of agriculture and the conditions for its successful adoption. Agriculture is an incredibly complex social practice, deeply rooted in local cultures but also highly manipulated by large corporate interests. Current research on alternative agriculture highlights themes of social and environ-mental justice, climate change, food sovereignty, inequality and the ownership of both knowledge and nature. I seek to learn more about debates over sustainable agriculture and rural development and apply them to current agricultural models and our (in)ability to realize meaningful food system transformation close to home.

Generally, I am interested in almost everything related to capitalism and modernity. Currently, my academic interest lies in the political economy of profit, which is also the focal point of my doctoral research. Due to the fact that the explanation of profit, a cornerstone around which the whole economic activities are built, is astonishingly overlooked by mainstream economics, it is meaningful to seriously delve into this subject. My research will draw on radical economics and institutionalism, seeking to demonstrate that profit is a category and phenomenon embedded with abundant social connotations far richer than what the equilibrium methodology can reveal. One important dimension of those social connotations is power. Power is a force that shapes social institutions. Institutions, in turn, dictate the specific expression and morphology of power. âFinancial capitalismâ, characterized by financial deregulation, dollar standard, unbridled monetary stimulus, etc., to a large extent, has altered the logic of profit/capital accumulation of âcommodity capitalismâ. My research attempts to disclose how power is wielded in this special institutional setting in favor of profiting. In a general sense, it echoes Marxism in understanding profit from a political perspective, contrasting the depoliticizing trend in mainstream economics. Yet it significantly differs from critical economics for it understands profit or the expression of power as constantly rheological in its content, which is paralleled with and influenced by the evolution of social institutions.

I am interested in the mining and development debate. My research looks at the conditions that influence the role that artisanal and small-scale gold mining has in improving local sustainable livelihoods in Peru. These include issues such as the negotiation and conflicts between large-scale mining and community-based small-scale mining, trade and cooperation between Canada and Peru, and private governance initiatives.

My research centres around the social reproductive functions of non-profit organizations, with a focus on how localized approaches to community care support the everyday gendered labours that reproduce our society. My project explores how different scales of non-profit organizations operating in Canada represent their charitable care work to the public, and what this elucidates about particular notions of caring in the context of a global crisis of care. By considering non-profit organizations through a feminist political economy lens, my research draws attention to the capitalist discourse of dominant development interventions which purport a depoliticized, individualized and purely financial way of caring for fellow global citizens, and considers how community-based approaches to care may differ or depart from those of large-scale, international non-profit organizations.

My current research focuses on the interplay between conflict-induced internal displacement and disability protection. Along the way, it will unpack the policy, legal and institutional landscapes on internal displacement. Moreover, it will indulge in examining the real-life conditions and treatment of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in general and those with disabilities in East Africa (Ethiopia). It will further dis-aggregate the experiences of women, children, and the elderly as it is imperative to investigate the intra-group distinctions for a more complete understanding of the matter. The effect of ethnic affiliation on differential treatment of IDPs in the study area also forms a part of the proposed study. Overall, the proposed study applies a human rights-based approach to the assessment of the global and national responses to internal displacement.

My research examines queer care and social reproduction in northern Canada, with a focus on health/care disparities for transgender and gender non-conforming folks. I am particularly interested in the ways in which queer, trans, and GNC youth care for one another in the context of institutional failure to meet their mental, physical, and sexual healthcare needs, and how these caring relations shape their experiences of community. I approach the intersections between queer care and northern health disparities through a decolonial, feminist political economy lens, utilizing arts-based research methods.

My research focuses on critical engagements with the history of Canada as an extractive state. I take a historical materialist approach to the origins of extraction throughout Canada but particularly in the North and how it has impacted Indigenous and minority communities. In addition to extraction and resources, my work also investigates the political economy of tourism and hospitality in rural, remote, and indigenous communities. Alongside my supervisor Dr. Rebecca Hall, we work with Dene communities in the Northwest Territories on post-extraction development and Indigenous-led alternative development. Overall, I utilize a Marxian political-economy framework as well as critical decolonization studies to approach the topic of development.

My research interests lie within the themes of agroecology, feminist political ecology, repeasantization and sustainable agriculture. Generally, I wish to examine the power relations that govern access to natural resources. More specifically, I am interested in conceptions of food sovereignty and agroecology as endorsed by the global peasant movement, La Via Campesina, and its member institutions. I am interested in how the field of agroecology must increasingly integrate feminist theory and praxis to effectively transform dominant power relations within food systems. I wish to examine how womenâs social reproduction and agroecological contributions are evaluated, and under what circumstances they are acknowledged.

Broadly, my research lies at the intersection of data, development, and the city. My research project contributes to scholarly understandings of data justice and the ways in which it can be supported in the context of open data initiatives in South Africa (with implications for other cities in the global South). Focusing on open data in Cape Town, one of the first municipal open data initiatives in the global South, I ask how access to knowledge and the benefits of open data can be more equitably distributed in conditions of extreme inequality.

My current research interests include migration, land politics, food security and community health. As large-scale land acquisitions continue to become increasingly popular within communities across the global south and migration levels continue to rise, the needs of those most affected continue to go unmet by the corporations and governments responsible. In response, I hope to apply an interdisciplinary approach to help examine the intersections between these topics. More specifically, exploring how issues of land politics affect members of the migrant community and their holistic health.

My research will focus on community building and family structures within Southeast Asia. With an ever-growing influx of tourist activity to many countries across the region, the needs and lives of local families and communities are increasingly decentered. In addition, the rapidly changing climate has had significant impacts on communities in the region, especially on the youth within them. I wish to examine these phenomena from a feminist political ecology lens, examining the intersection between tourism, the climate crisis, and families and youth. More specifically, I will examine the role of care and embodiment in localized challenges and resistance for youth and families across Southeast Asia

My research interests are geared toward sustainable development and global health. I come from a background in Biology. This interdisciplinary background has provided me with a multifaceted lens that considers development in a holistic way. My goal is to look at global health with biological and social sciences in mind, examining how the two are connected and how they impact one another through the frameworks of embodiment and ecosocoial theory. My current research project is focused on investigating the impacts of aquaculture as an adaptation to the environmental degradation caused by hydropower dams in Thailand. Current practices allow communities to be disproportionately affected as we accelerate into the Anthropocene and face the challenges of climate change. I intend to evaluate different sustainable processes that can lessen this effect in a resilient way and the impacts of aquaculture on the communities' physical and mental wellbeing.
