==About me==

I am a socio-cultural anthropologist with a background in teaching, research, and child and human rights programs. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in Anthropology at the University of Manitoba, following my Master of Arts in Anthropology from the University of Manitoba and a Bachelor of Social Science in Anthropology from Jahangirnagar University, Bangladesh.

==About my research==

My PhD project, ''Values, Rights, Wellbeing and the Social Economy of Dried Fish in Bangladesh'', aims to understand how values, including disvalues, are produced within the dried fish value chains and their impacts on the products, working conditions, actors’ relations and workers’ rights. In doing so, the study investigates the structure and dynamics of the chains, assessing the social and economic relations shaping production and value, examines the divergence in value assessment, assessing whether the dried fish value chains are inclusive and equitable, and provides policy recommendations for the sustainability and equity in the sector.

Research interests: My research interest encompasses social wellbeing, political economy, child and human rights, social justice, intersectionality, and development studies.
