At the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), I co-authored Georgia’s Country Gender Assessment of agriculture and rural livelihoods. I also design assessments and participatory research that inform programme design and policy dialogue, and adapt gender analysis into action plans for agriculture projects.

My research has explored gender, rural livelihoods, care and social welfare, addiction, and women’s activism. Through my ongoing independent project, Archives of Love, I study Georgian love letters from the 1970s to the 1990s and translate archival findings into storytelling and visual work.
