Gaurav R. Sinha
Assistant Professor
Gaurav Sinha’s research agenda lies at the intersections of poverty, social justice, and mental health and utilizes big data analytics and strengths-based approaches to promote financial and mental health equity. He prefers rigorous and in-depth discussions of methodological approaches in studies that can help in research reproducibility. Sinha’s research interests have evolved from his 16 years of post-MSW practice experience on reducing the consequences of financial vulnerabilities among invisible populations whose narratives have traditionally been situated at the outer periphery of intellectual and academic inquiry in social work.
