Research

I study governance of complex societal and environmental problems, particularly crises, hazards and disasters. My research focuses on how societies prepare for, respond to, and draw lessons from disruptive events to enhance societal robustness through public policy-making. A major part of this work has centered on advancing the understanding policy processes in different cases and contexts, including the interplay between actors, institutions, and events. Much of this work has engaged with the Advocacy Coalition Framework research program.

My long-term research agenda is to engage in interdisciplinary collaboration to identify drivers of crisis resilient societies to inform social science theory and generate insights useful to practitioners’ communities. Through this work, I have collaborated with colleagues in, e.g., the earth sciences, economics, and computational linguistics. In the past 15 years, I have I have been affiliated with the Centre for Natural Hazards and Disaster Science, CNDS (as co-Director, Research coordinator, and Director of PhD studies).

I am currently on the editorial boards for the following journals and presses: Policy Studies Journal; European Policy Analysis; Risks, Hazards, and Crisis in Public Policy; Public Policy series of Palgrave; and Natural Hazards series of Springer.
