Biography

I am currently doing an M Phil in Geographical Research, with a focus on Political Ecology. Specifically, I am analyzing adaptive co-management patterns in a Joint Forestry Management project in Tajikistan. My research interests are broadly related to studying variables necessary for transformation in social ecological systems, spurred during my time with the Aga Khan Development Network in Tajikistan and Afghanistan, where I coordinated a Cross Border programme, and later worked as the National Natural Resource Management Programme Coordinator. Also, I am writing a small book “Bo dastoni khud – With our hands”: A Book of Food, and Life, in the Afghan and Tajik Pamirs, which tells the story of a rapidly changing cultural and physical landscape and invokes memory as a platform from which to envision the future.
