Dr Afnan Al-Malk

Former Research Student

Research overview

I am a full-time PhD student, currently in my third year. My research interest is in applied economics generally, with topics spanning different fields. In my first PhD chapter, I explore the potential channel that links migrants' religiosity and their employment in the EU labor market. For my second chapter, I examine the impact of distance on international trade by exploiting a geographical shock to identify causal effects. Finally, my current research examines how a shock to a major migrants' destination affects the remittances they send back home.
