My research uses an economic geography lens to provide unique and valuable insights into the political economy of regional and urban development, housing and climate change adaptation. A focus of my research is the factors influencing the spatial redistribution of different forms of work, and the influence of social, material and environmental changes. My research has included qualitative and quantitative analysis, and multi-disciplinary collaborations.
I have conducted and contributed to projects on regional development and continue to publish on these issues, including the Australian Government's National Climate Risk Assessment, Evaluation of the National Urban Policy Programme of UN-Habitat, The Business Case for Social Housing as Infrastructure, Climate Resilience and Australian Festivals, and a range of projects regional population and economic dynamics.
