Presentation

My research interest focuses on the interplay between private and public governance in defining and guiding societal good, the role of state and politics in corporate responsibility (CSR), the role of businesses in development, and CSR in the realm of blended finance and partnerships for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

My postdoc project examines how we can better respond to the grand challenges of poverty reduction and climate change through redirecting business to enhance sustainability and social good in the context of Development Finance Institutions.

Primary research areas
  • role of state in CSR
  • interplay of public and private governance
  • development policies and practises
  • private sector development and DFIs
  • social good and sustainability governance
