Miss Emily Fivian

Research Fellow

United Kingdom

I am a global health nutritionist specializing in equity-focused research on nutrition-sensitive interventions in South Asia. I apply an intersectional lens to my research, analysing how multiple social characteristics intersect to create complex systems of privilege and marginalization in the context of nutrition inequalities and intervention research.

My current work focuses on using intersectionality to investigate differences in the reach and benefits of existing nutrition-sensitive agriculture interventions in five states of rural India and designing and testing climate- and gender-sensitive and socially equitable market interventions that improve diets in rural, marginalised communities in Bihar, India.
