ESTELLA CARPI
I have a background in social and linguistic anthropology, sociology, and Arabic and Islamic Studies. I love working in interdisciplinary environments.
I am primarily interested in how societies respond to human-made crises and crisis management. I have predominantly worked in/on Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Turkey. My academic work has examined the impacts of humanitarian aid provision on identity and group belonging, the role of the state in humanitarian governance, and the overlapping of welfare and emergency relief. In the past, as a postdoctoral researcher, I have worked on South-South humanitarianism (especially faith-inspired forms of assistance) and the urban-humanitarian nexus. I have served as a Safeguarding consultant for Arabic- and Portuguese-speaking NGOs, providing research consultancies on war-caused displacement and aid programming to UN agencies, NGOs, and the Dutch government.
