Research fellow, Australian National University
Sally’s research interests focus on Islam, gender and politics in Indonesia.
From 2018 to 2021 Sally was a key researcher in the ‘Supporting the Rules-Based Order in Southeast Asia (SEARBO)’ project funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT). Under SEARBO, she headed up (with Edward Aspinall) a research component on women’s political participation in Indonesia, and (with Greg Fealy) a second component on polarisation within the Islamic community in Indonesia.
Sally’s current research focus, as part of a ARC Discovery Project led by Professor Edward Aspinall and Dr Eve Warburton, is on women's political representation in Indonesia.
