Eri has a diverse and eclectic work history, moving from within the advice and advocacy sector (and winning an award), and then into social policy research, campaigning, and then finally into academia.
He is most interested in the fascinating area between social policy and philosophy, in particular, where philosophical insights can help to bring about positive social change.
