RESEARCH PROJECT
Informality and Innovation: Building Post-Pandemic Resilient Communities in Bolivia.
Unpacking Environmental Migration and Integration-Outcomes in the Urban Informal Economy in Bolivia.
My research explores how different environmental drivers of migration influence the socio-economic outcomes of migrants who settle in urban informal economies. It investigates whether informal work functions as a viable adaptation strategy or reinforces vulnerability and poverty for environmental migrants in urban settings.
