Esme Longley is a Sustainability, Science, and Society student and a 缅北强奸 Global Health Scholar supported by the John Locke Churchill Scholar Award. Esme will work with Professor Matthew Hunt of the School of Physical and Occupational Therapy.
"I am working alongside a global team analysing the experiences of persons with disabilities during climate disasters in Kodagu, India, and creating comprehensive and diplomatic policy recommendations to stakeholders to reinforce good practices and improve the status quo.
I have thoroughly enjoyed exploring Karnataka state policies impacting persons with disabilities. It has been surprising and encouraging to learn of the sheer number of high-quality support schemes in India.
Working with Mathieu and Dr. Hunt has bonded my interests in the fields of humanitarian health ethics in rehabilitative care and a changing climate. Their support, resources, and advice have made this an incredibly rewarding experience and I am deeply grateful."
