Biography
I'm an urban and regional planner whose research interests include land use planning and design, international planning, multiculturalism and human rights and planning policy.
Research Interest
research works have focused on ethnic communities and the effects of immigration, religion and cultures on urban structures and public policies. My most recent works are on human rights and zoning, high density rural regions of India, effects of tall buildings in Colombo, Sri Lanka and affordable housing in the United Arab Emirates. I recently edited a special issue of Plan Canada on Human Rights and the City. My co-authored book "Understanding India's new approach to Spatial Development and Planning" published by Oxford University Press is available in the market.
