Mark Eggerman
I work at the intersection of academic, commercial, and non-profit organizations in social sciences and health-related research. I have managed quantitative and qualitative research projects in over 20 countries, including nationwide surveys and ethnographic studies in the Middle East, Francophone Africa, Pakistan & Afghanistan.
From 2015 to 2017, I was co-PI on a research project measuring the health and wellbeing impacts of a psychosocial intervention for Syrian refugee youth, in Jordan. Funded by the Research for Health in Humanitarian Crises (R2HC), the work led to the development of regionally-relevant research tools for measuring resilience and mental health. For further details on this work, see:

In 2018, I conducted fieldwork with faith-based organizations and migrants on the US-Mexico border as part of the British Council’s Bridging Voices project (2017-2020) to improve the understanding of the relationship between religion and the promotion of social justice for refugees.

I have also worked as an International Research Consultant for clients including the BBC World Service Trust, SAVOLA (Saudi Arabia), the Afghanistan Research & Evaluation Unit (Kabul), Intermedia Research (Washington, DC), and The Family Room LLC (Norwalk, CT). Before coming to Yale, I worked for the BBC World Service and Durham University (UK).
