Joanna’s research interests focus on a broad range of social policy related issues, including long-term care and prevention, fertility, migration, gender and labour markets, poverty and family. Her PhD at LSE’s Social Policy department examined childbearing intentions of Polish mothers and fathers living in Poland and in the UK.
Joanna has been working with Dr Jose-Luis Fernandez on a number of projects including evaluating prevention effects in adult social care (ASC) and testing new eligibility criteria for ASC in England. She is also a coordinator of the International Long-term Care Policy Network (ILPN) which promotes the global exchange of evidence and knowledge on long-term care policy among researchers, policy-makers and other stakeholders.
