Assistant Research Professor
Washington University in St. Louis
SAINT LOUIS, MO, United States
I am a policy-based intervention researcher studying child and family well-being in various social, economic, and political contexts. My research agenda also includes studying social welfare in oil-and-gas-rich countries. My current projects also look at interventions for ensuring the social, economic, and emotional well-being of people affected by wars and civil unrest.
I have published in highly ranked peer-reviewed journals such as Child Abuse and Neglect, the British Journal of Social Work, Child Indicators Research, and Children and Youth Services Review. I was awarded $579,500 in research funding during my doctoral studies. Before that, I secured $2 million from the EU and Azerbaijan to lead a team to establish nationwide social services for children and families in Azerbaijan. My current funding proposals under review are for $730,000 for social-economic interventions in several countries. My teaching experience spans more than 15 years.
I serve on the Editorial Board of the journal International Social Work and International Journal of School Social Work and periodically review articles for the Global Social Welfare journal.
