The Academy for Gender Equality and Social Justice Research in Organisations is pleased to host Dr Dhara Shah from Deakin Business School between the 1st - 5th June 2026. As part of the Academy’s research seminar series
Dr Dhara Shah will be presenting her latest work on “Empowering Change: A Comparative Exploration of Women Social Entrepreneurs’ Motivations and Challenges Across Three Nations”. This will be a hybrid event. She is also available for informal drop-in sessions during her time here in LUMS.
During her stay at LUMS she will be based in the Department of Entrepreneurship and Strategy and is more than happy to have meetings with colleagues and PhD students who may have a mutual interest in this work.
