I am a PhD candidate in Economics at Trinity College Dublin. My research is at the intersection of applied microeconomics and development economics.
Much of my research uses GIS data and self-collected data to investigate the impacts of internal displacement on the population displaced and their host communities. For instance, my work tackles questions such as Do forced displaced population flows have long-term social participation effects on their host communities? or How does forced displacement affect the timing of marriage, particularly, early marriage? and If traditional marriage payment norms influence such a relationship?
During my Phd I have worked as a consultant for the UNDP. Previously, I worked for the United Nations and the OECD.

About the Migration Network Hub
What is the Migration Network Hub?
The Hub is a virtual “meeting space” where governments, stakeholders and experts can access and share migration-related information and services. It provides curated content, analysis and information on a variety of topics.
The Hub aims to support UN Member States in the implementation, follow-up and review of the Global Compact for Migration by serving as a repository of existing evidence, practices and initiatives, and facilitating access to knowledge sharing via online discussions, an expert database and demand-driven, tailor-made solutions (launching in 2021).
Submit your content
What content is displayed in the Hub?
The Hub aims to help you find information on migration, ranging from policy briefs and journal articles, existing portals and platforms and what they offer, to infographics and videos. The different types of resources submitted by users undergo peer review by a panel of experts from within the UN and beyond, before being approved for inclusion in the Hub. To provide guidance to users based on findings of the needs assessment, the content is ordered so that more comprehensive and global resources are shown before more specific and regional ones. Know a great resource? Please submit using the links above and your suggestion will be reviewed. Please see the draft criteria for existing practices here.
Apply to join the Peer Review Roster
Content submitted to the Migration Network Hub is first peer reviewed by experts in the field from both the UN and beyond. Applications are welcomed to join the roster on an ongoing basis. Learn more here.
