I work as a Postdoctoral researcher at the Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chain Research Institute, Hanken School of Economics. Currently, I am studying societal resilience and the role of critical infrastructure for crisis preparedness, civil protection and total defence in the new NATO countries, Finland and Sweden in a project funded by the Peter Wallenberg Foundation. Previously, I worked on the EU-funded project sCience & human factOr for Resilient sociEty (CORE, grant agreement No 101021746). In a sub-project led by Hanken, we explored how the security of supply is organized within the disaster management and disaster risk reduction frameworks of different EU countries. Within that scope, I was researching the role of citizens in the security of supply and supply chain resilience, citizens’ home preparedness, and how preparedness advice is communicated to citizens. In an Academy of Finland -funded project Cash and/or Carry: The challenges and modalities of delivering aid in conflict zones (No 3037), I studied how the different aid modalities are discussed in the news media at the beginning of the full-scale war in Ukraine.
I received my PhD in 2017 at the University of Jyväskylä, Department of Communication, with my PhD focusing on crisis communication in the case of terrorism. My previous work experience includes research in an EU-funded project CATO (CBRN crisis management: Architecture, Technologies and Operational Procedures) dealing with crisis management in the case of terrorism using chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear devices. My research in crisis communication is multidisciplinary in nature drawing from communication sciences, organizational studies, psychology and (crisis) management, with a focus on public sector organisations and their communication with citizens and other stakeholders. At Jyväskylä University School of Business and Economics (JSBE), I worked as a University teacher at the Corporate Communication discipline.
