'Emily's research interests are the ways children and young people are engaged in giving, volunteering and social action through educational experiences of citizenship and civic education. Emily is also interested in social inequalities and the way children and young people’s experiences can be determined by gender, class and race. Before joining academia, Emily worked for non-profits and charities in the UK and overseas and this also informs her interest in global communities.
