Research
Broadly, my research aligns with the United Nationsâ Sustainable Development Goals of reducing inequalities and peace, justice and strong institutions. It is positioned at the intersection of international and multicultural marketing, consumer behaviour and wellbeing, and responsible management practice. My current work comprises four strands: 1) the role and impact of (multi)cultural meanings expressed and exchanged by market actors (consumers, brands, organisations) on cultural identity dynamics and inclusion/exclusion perceptions and cognitions by individuals and communities, and on intercultural relations; 2) development of marketing strategy frameworks to enable organisations and brands ethically and meaningfully engage with culturally diverse consumer populations; 3) development of inclusive consumer-centred frameworks for digital transformation; and 4) the role of marketing and brand activism in social resilience, with a particular focus on war/conflict zones. From the theoretical development perspective, I draw from insights of social identity theory, acculturation theory, institutional theory, schema theory and such concepts as multicultural marketplaces, consumer discrimination and vulnerability, Diversity and Inclusion Engaged Marketing. A stream of my work is positioned in the Transformative Consumer Research paradigm.
