Emily Waller is a doctoral researcher in the School of Social Sciences, University of New South Wales (UNSW, Sydney, Australia) and an affiliate of the UNSW Australian Human Rights Centre. Her thesis explores the phenomenon of conflict-related sexual violence stigmatisation in particular contexts and how and to what effect justice mechanisms are able to address this issue as part of a broader transformative approach. She is collecting empirical data for this research in Uganda and Rwanda, as both cases suffered high rates of conflict-related sexual violence, have set up layered forms of justice to account for such crimes, and offer differing temporal perspectives since the end of the violence. Emily is also a research associate��for the��Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery Project "Combating sexual violence against women post-conflict through 'transformative' reparations: problems and prospects" (DP140102274), jointly led by Professor Louise Chappell, Faculty��of Arts & Social Sciences, UNSW, and Professor Andrea Durbach and Associate Professor Sarah Williams, Faculty of Law, UNSW. Emily��has a multidisciplinary research background which has focused on exploring the interface between public health, human rights, justice, security, and gender, with particular attention to the East Africa and Asia-Pacific regions.

Previously, Emily has supported research in Sri Lanka and the Solomon Islands, which led to the development of a practical field tool to provide rapid assessment of peace-building and conflict prevention components of health initiatives in conflict-affected settings. Further research focused on the UN response to sexual exploitation and abuse by peacekeepers from a victim-centred and human rights perspective. Later, she worked for the cross-faculty UNSW Initiative for Health and Human Rights, and the Program on International Health and Human Rights, Harvard School of Public Health, where her research expanded to the theory, methods, tools and application of health and human rights frameworks to various international public health challenges, including HIV, sexual and reproductive health, and female genital mutilation/cutting. More recently, Emily was a research associate��on an ARC Discovery Project (DP110101081)��which��analysed social science perspectives on public health responses to pandemic influenza, jointly led by Dr. Niamh Stephenson,��in��School of Public Health and Community Medicine at UNSW, and Dr. Mark Davis, School of Social Sciences, Monash University. Emily received her Master’s Degree in Public Health (International Health and Development) from UNSW.
