Research
Griffins Fellow, 2019-21
In 2019-21, I was awarded a prestigious Griffins Society research fellowship in partnership with the Institute of Criminology, Cambridge, during which I received training in data analysis, investigative techniques, and managing sensitive data.
My project asked why migrant women are disproportionately imprisoned on remand. In a system centred on men and where data on gender and immigration status is not regularly published, I used FOI requests, interviews with lawyers and support workers, and court observations to fill in the gaps.
My findings have been published by The Justice Gap, Russell Webster, and Transform Justice.
My research has had real-world impacts: informing the development of a new Bail Information Service to identify defendants for conditional bail and a London-wide strategy to reduce numbers of women in prison.
