Fieldwork

I have extensive experience in collecting data in an African context. During my doctoral studies I was fortunate enough to be involved in the Kagera Health and Development Project. The children who were orphaned between the different rounds of the KHDS formed the basis of my dissertation fieldwork on orphan children and family networks in Tanzania in 2004/05.

Since then, I have conducted a number field projects. In all of the following I have developed the research design, worked on project development, wrote funding proposals and questionnaires and organized the fieldwork. For research outputs, please visit the research page
