Ariyo Dharma Pahla Irhamna

Welcome!

I am a Postgraduate Researcher at the School of Global Development, University of East Anglia. My dissertation explores decision-making processes in climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction, under the supervision of Prof. Bereket Kebede and Prof. Pieter Serneels.

My main research interests centres on how climate change causally impacts development outcomes through changing behaviour and decision-making. I employ large-scale, multi-level survey data and weather/climate data combined with advanced causal inference techniques.

My secondary research interest explores the global value chain, international economics, and spatial economic dynamics.

Since 2014, I have served as a researcher at the Institute for Development of Economics and Finance (INDEF) in Indonesia.

Additionally, I have held Associate Fellowship status with the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA) since 2024.
