My research interests span the following areas of development microeconomics:
Poverty traps, vulnerability and rural welfare dynamics
Risk management mechanisms in poor communities

My current works involve the use of risk modeling and original field survey and experiments in tackling development of pro-poor risk management and credit instruments as a means to reduce poverty and vulnerability among poor communities.
