I am a social anthropologist working on refugees and the future of digital work, while researching the current role of digital economies in international development. My previous research included work on inequality and migration, labour mobility, urban inclusion, and minority citizenship. Through Digital Livelihoods, I collaborate with the International Labour Organization and the UN Refugee Agency, UNHCR, on a project that seeks to improve the working conditions of refugees in the digital economy and mitigate the risks they face.
