Mathilde Maîtrot has been a senior lecturer in International Development at Bath since November 2019.

In particular, she focuses on how politics and governance shape experiences of inequality, marginalisation and extreme poverty in Bangladesh. She is also interested in the integration of social science perspectives and disciplines to make development interventions and policies more inclusive.
