He has carried out pioneering research on an economic consequence analysis with a major focus on economic resilience to natural disasters at the levels of individual businesses, markets, and regional economies. Another research focus is methodologies for integrated disaster risk management and governance. Through these academic activities, he wishes to contribute to establishing “implementation science” as a key area of science for disaster risk reduction.

Prior to his academic appointments, he went through the international voluntary sector.
