Research Interests

My doctoral research (2003-2010), was of farmers of different ethnicity co-operating on irrigation water management, despite
the fact that they were in the middle of a violent ethnic conflict that affected everyone of them directly.

Ph.D. dissertation: "Bridging troubled waters?": everyday ethnic interaction in a context of violent conflict in Kottiyar Pattu, Trincomalee, Sri Lanka,"
