I am from Bangladesh, doing my Ph.D. at UGA in anthropology. I am interested in women, gender, and sustainable development. My MA thesis at Brandeis University is on the role of non-governmental organizations in achieving women’s empowerment and sustainable development in Bangladesh. Most of my publications cover the area of women’s empowerment, intersectionality, violence against women, spatiality and temporality, and sustainable development.

I have almost eight years of professional experience in different capacities with the Center for Mass Education in Sciences (CMES), Bangladesh, the United Nations Information Center (UNIC), Dhaka, the International Organization for Migration (IMO), Dhaka and the Campaign for Sustainable Rural Livelihoods (CSRL), Bangladesh.

At UGA, my research area is gender inequality and the power structure of society. I believe my research findings will be able to reveal the relationship between gender inequality and knowledge production in order to find out a path for improving women’s condition in society.
