Background

My research focuses on the design, implementation and evaluation of transdisciplinary health promotion interventions that address the social determinants of health and strengthen community and health systems. I specialise in implementation science approaches that translate policy into context-responsive, evidence-based programmes through participatory and multi-sector collaboration. My work integrates community-based participatory research (CBPR), monitoring and evaluation systems design, and stakeholder governance frameworks to improve health equity, resilience and sustainable wellbeing outcomes in complex public health environments.
