The overall objective of my research is to ensure people with disabilities access climate-resilient inclusive WASH services and achieve menstrual health. This involves conducting policy analyses, generating rigorous evidence using participatory methods, and co-designing, piloting and evaluating interventions to improve access to WASH for people with disabilities and their caregivers.

My current and recent projects are:

1. Inclusive pathways towards climate-resilient WASH in Bangladesh. This research is in partnership with icddr,b and World Vision and is funded by the Australian Government's Water for Women's Fund.
2. Evaluating the Hygiene Behaviour Change Coalition for COVID-19 prevention to explore the extent to which project partners have included disability and ageing in their hygiene promotion programmes. This is with PENDA (Programme for Evidence to Inform Disability Action), with funding from the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office.
3. Translating disability inclusive water, sanitation and hygiene policies into practice: lessons learned from Cambodia and Bangladesh. This research is in partnership with WaterAid, and is funded by the Australian Government's Water for Women's Fund.
4. Exploring the menstrual experiences of people with intellectual disabilities and their caregivers, and developing a menstrual health intervention for this group in the humanitarian context in Vanuatu. This is in partnership with World Vision, with funding from Elra's Humanitarian Innovation Fund.
