49245 Humphrey Buradi Zadock The Water Project - MajiOps, Western Kenya PhD Student As a development professional, my interest in the Development Studies Association (DSA) stems from a deep commitment to contributing meaningfully to sustainable development, social justice, and inclusive growth both locally and globally. The DSA’s mission to advance knowledge and understanding of international development aligns closely with my professional goals and personal values. Engaging with the DSA provides a dynamic platform for interdisciplinary dialogue, research collaboration, and knowledge exchange among academics, practitioners, and policymakers. I am particularly drawn to the Association's focus on addressing global inequalities, fostering participatory development approaches, and promoting ethical research practices. These are core areas in which I seek to grow and make impactful contributions. My participation in the DSA community offers an opportunity to stay at the forefront of critical debates and innovative practices in development. It allows me to both contribute to and benefit from the Association’s wide network of professionals who are shaping the future of development thinking. Through active involvement—whether by attending conferences, contributing to thematic working groups, or engaging in collaborative research—I aim to broaden my perspectives and strengthen my ability to design and implement evidence-based, context-sensitive development solutions. Ultimately, my interest in the DSA is rooted in a belief that collaborative knowledge-building and inclusive dialogue are essential for addressing the complex challenges facing our world. By engaging with the Association, I aspire to enhance my professional practice, contribute to meaningful change, and support the vision of a more equitable and sustainable global society. My focus is working in Africa with a soft touch for Western Kenya. Kenya

I have ten (10) years’ experience in: Project design, Planning, Management & monitoring & evaluation of PEPFAR/USAID/CDC funded projects using Results frameworks and Logical Framework Approach; operating within the tight time disciplines imposed by ambitious projects which I have co monitored and evaluated; and the application of modern leadership methods (through staff motivation and involvement in both decision-making and target-setting, project planning, clarity in communication, and easy personal inter-relations). My experience in Project Management, Monitoring and Evaluation of OVC Programs spreads across over four (4) HIV/AIDS Implementation Science projects namely, SUSTAIN project funded by CCFN, SMILE project funded by CRS, and iCARES/aCARES project funded by APIN. I am competent in the design and development of M&E plans as well as putting in place an effective M&E system that promotes the quality of program data. I recently supervised a team of workers who were committed to strengthening the M&E system under the Strategic Informatics unit of my organization. My own Bias professional background, even as it cuts across varying discipline, together with a command of experience in OVC projects, has also left me confident in project management, monitoring and evaluation of projects/programs that require the reconciliation of different stakeholder interests/approaches to otherwise solve common problems.

43933 Dasauki Musa Babcock University Lecturer My research interest lies at the intersection of energy economics, environmental degradation, and climate change. I am driven by a commitment to understanding the intricate relationships and dynamics between economic activities, energy systems, and the environment. In particular, I am keen to investigate how energy-related policies and market structures impact economic growth while considering their implications for environmental sustainability. My focus extends to analyzing the trade-offs and synergies between economic development and environmental conservation, seeking innovative solutions that promote a harmonious balance between the two. By delving into the complexities of energy economics, I aspire to contribute valuable insights that can inform policy decisions, foster sustainable development, and mitigate the challenges posed by climate change. Through interdisciplinary research, I aim to bridge the gaps between economics, environmental science, and policy to address the pressing issues of our time.

50233 Fathima Sulthana K Tata Institute of Social Sciences PhD student My PhD research explores the spatial dynamics of digital industry clusters in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), India’s largest metropolitan area. By analysing locational determinants and externalities, the study aims to uncover the underlying dynamics shaping these clusters. A key focus is examining how remote work influences their spatial organization. Using spatial mapping techniques, the research also assesses whether digital industries have unique location patterns compared to traditional sectors. Additionally, it evaluates the role of knowledge spillovers and skilled labor pools as drivers of cluster formation and growth. The findings will contribute to understanding India’s expanding digital economy and helps policy strategies for growing secondary cities of the country. Mumbai India

Her research explores Bedouin epistemologies and storytelling as decolonial praxis, examining how Bedouin women in Jordan navigate and challenge colonial, patriarchal, and neoliberal structures. Through participatory, reflexive, and arts-based methodologies, she engages with oral histories, digital activism, and embodied feminist methods to foreground indigenous knowledge and resistance. Wesam’s work contributes to decolonial feminist scholarship, digital indigeneity, and intergenerational identity negotiations, centering Bedouin women’s lived experiences as sites of knowledge production and political agency. Jordan and the broader SWANA region (Southwest Asia and North Africa), with a specific emphasis on Bedouin communities in Al-Faysalieh, Madaba, Jordan. My work also engages with transnational indigenous and decolonial feminist perspectives that connect Jordan’s Bedouin communities to global discussions on coloniality, indigeneity, and alternative knowledge production.
