Nina Alvandipour, Ph.D.

Welcome to my website!!

I am a recent Public Affairs Ph.D. specializing in public administration, urban governance and community development. I focus on community governance and collective action in addressing complex problems at the local/hyperlocal level, with an emphasis on abductive reasoning and evidence-based  policy making. I explore innovative and community-based public governance strategies that bridge theory and practice, aiming to redefine relationships between public service delivery, people, and place in achieving sustainability, social equity, and climate resilience.

I am always eager to collaborate on research projects, discuss potential speaking engagements, or explore teaching opportunities. Feel free to reach out to me.
