With LERRN, I have been involved in researching the impact of resettlement on refugees living in Kenyan camps, analyzing archival documents on the history of solutions for refugees, facilitating LERRN&#8217;s research methods and ethics course, editing LERRN&#8217;s working papers series, and analyzing prominent journals in forced migration studies looking at geographic representation among authors. My PhD thesis research is about the history of UNHCR&#8217;s role in the resettlement of refugees with disabilities.
