My name is Jennifer (Jenn) Trivedi.
I’m a Disaster Anthropologist.
Anthropology & Disaster Research
I am currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Delaware. I am interested in the historical and cultural contexts surrounding disaster vulnerability, response, recovery, resilience, and decision-making. I am also interested in compounding disasters, how disasters are perceived and remembered over space and time, and how disasters may still take some people by surprise.
Applied Anthropology
I am an active member and Fellow of the Society for Applied Anthropology (SfAA), its Risk and Disasters Topical Interest Group (RDTIG), and the Human Rights & Social Justice (HRSJ) Committee.
