Water Experience
I am a disaster anthropologist and my work on water relates to household responses to water challenges post disaster events (with a focus on weather events) and their implications for their health. I am also interested in the relationship between food, energy and water insecurity in disaster context and gendered experiences on coping mechanisms.
