My current research focuses on economic analysis of sustainable behaviors through cognitive interventions using experimental (both laboratory and social) approaches. This work has provided me with extensive experience in determining drivers for sustainable food purchase intentions and inducing people to make a lasting shift to sustainable behaviors, i.e., sustainable food consumption and reducing inequality in winner-take-all societies, through deliberative cognitive interventions.
In my professional career, I have been working for almost twelve years in the academic and research fields of agricultural economics in Bangladesh. At the very beginning, I served the Bangladesh Sugarcrop Research Institute (BSRI) as a Scientific Officer of the Agricultural Economics division and carried out different research on marketing systems, agribusiness management, price determination and subsidy utilization. Since joining Sylhet Agricultural University as a faculty member in the Agricultural Marketing and Business Management department, I have been performing my responsibilities by teaching, conducting research projects, supervising graduate students and extending my work on agribusiness and marketing.
