Biography
Dr Bargawi is a Reader in the Department of Economics whose research spans macroeconomic policies and employment as well as gender and labour market issues, including the relationship between paid and unpaid work and its connection to women’s health and wellbeing.
Her research is focused on East Africa and the Middle East, as well as Europe, and she recently contributed a chapter on 'How does Economics address Gender?' in a textbook entitled Recharting the History of Economic Thought as well as an article on 'Re-negotiating Social Reproduction, Work and Gender Roles in Occupied Palestine' in the Review of International Political Economy. Dr Bargawi has acted as a consultant for organisations including UN Women, the ILO and the Asian Development Bank and recently conducted a gender review of socio-economic related projects and programmes for the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung MENA.
She also works on issues relating to Economics teaching and pedagogy, championing the success of under-represented groups in the field of Economics. She works closely with colleagues across SOAS to monitor and improve how we teach and assess students and how we prepare our students for the world of work and/ or further study.
