This week we meet Dr Priti Parikh, Associate Professor at the Bartlett School of Construction and Project Management. Here, Priti chats to us about being awarded the Senior Research Fellowship co-funded by BBOXX and the Royal Academy of Engineering. What is your role and what does it involve?. I am Associate Professor at the Bartlett School of Construction and Project Management where I head the interdisciplinary Engineering for International Development (EFID) Centre. EFID centre works to impact energy, water and sanitation services for marginalised people. My team use mixed-method approaches for interdisciplinary research focusing on sustainable and resilient infrastructure, environmental improvements, integrated health-environment interventions and business models for resource constrained settings (slums and rural communities). I have been developing the empirical evidence base to link infrastructure access to the Sustainable Development Goals with amazing colleagues.
