About

I am a graduate of Sociology and Transcultural Studies. My research interests are the intersection of formal and informal urban waste economies in India, waste-related labour and
waste flows, investigating how these are shaped by urban transformations and the ambivalence of sustainability narratives with regard to informal labour. Through my research, I also examine the socio-economic and bureaucratic dynamics of informal waste work and precarities within changing urban infrastructures.
