Gibb works on environmental migration, especially the experiences and mobilities of survivors following natural hazards like typhoons, and the formal and informal governance of people's mobility. Regional focus is Southeast Asia.

For my COVID-19 work, I'm working with a team of researchers studying the pandemic experiences and mobilities of children and seniors (older adults) in parts of Canada and the USA.

Dana M. Greene, Ph.D. is currently an Independent Researcher on vulnerable populations to disaster, with ties to the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill following 20+ years of teaching courses on disasters, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, social theory, genocide studies, and Judaic studies.

She is leading the CONVERGE Redefining Family during COVID-19 Working Group with Dr. Jessica Pardee at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

I usually work on the social vulnerability to disasters, including race, social class, gender and sexual orientation in both natural and technological disasters. In addition to my work on several projects that are unrelated to the pandemic, I am currently working on multiple projects on COVID-19 projects including one with Marcilyn Cianfarani that focuses on the lived realities of individuals living with chronic illnesses and disabilities in North America during COVID-19 pandemic.
