I am currently the Editor of the Global Social Policy Digest, and my policy work is focused at the intersection of universal health coverage and social protection in the context of the 2030 Agenda. Most recently, I have worked as a consultant and advisor for the World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe. I am also a visiting scholar at the University of Kansas in the US and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Bremen in Germany, where I examine histories and colonial legacies of social protection in Africa. Previously, I completed my DPhil at the University of Oxford on the history of development assistance and social protection in hegemonic powers, and I also completed a fellowship in global social protection at Harvard University.
