Emma's work examines intergroup relations and the forces that shape them, specifically why different people and communities respond so differently to hosting refugees. Her doctoral research uses qualitative and experimental methods to examine the influence of social media on attitudes towards Syrian refugees in Turkey, and whether it is possible to use social media as a tool to improve responses to refugees.
