Eva’s applied research interests sit at the intersection of sustainable development, clean energy transitions, market and stakeholder insight, and impact communication.
Her current work supports programme activity connected to the transition from biomass and polluting fuels towards clean, affordable and modern energy cooking services.
Her wider interests include clean cooking and modern energy access, inclusive energy transitions, environmental sustainability, green skills, community engagement and the use of evidence to support policy, programme delivery and behaviour change.
Eva is particularly interested in how research can be translated into practical outputs that support international partners, communities, businesses and decision-makers to understand needs, communicate impact and improve delivery.
