Outreach

Alongside my policy work, I have taken part in grassroots outreach activities across emerging economies. Working directly with local communities has given me practical insights into how policies are experienced on the ground, especially in contexts of economic vulnerability. These experiences in Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia, and Jordan have informed my approach to applied research and policy evaluation, reinforcing the importance of aligning institutional reforms with local realities. 

Below are a few photos from my outreach work in Jordan and Lao PDR.
