I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Management, Society and Communication. I am also an affiliated research member of the HUMAC research group.
My current research focuses on the legitimacy concern and ethical issue of private sector engagement in humanitarian action. I hope to examine the fundamental conflict of business-humanitarian partnerships and ultimately provide an ethical and sustainable way forward through analytical and qualitative research methods.
Prior to this, I worked with the Ministry of Science and Technology of Taiwan on the normative foundation of corporate social responsibilities. My PhD research analyses humanitarian principles in conflict settings with political theory and normative ethics. The aim is to enable humanitarian agencies to set out clear ethical principles to contemporary humanitarian assistance dilemmas.
