About Dani

Dr Dani Barrington is a Senior Lecturer in Global Health (Teaching and Research) within the School of Population and Global Health at the University of Western Australia. Holding a PhD in Environmental Systems Engineering from the University of Western Australia (2012), a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Environmental Engineering, and a Bachelor of Science, she began her career as a public health engineer working for a non-government organisation in Nepal. Following her doctoral studies, she served as a Research Fellow jointly appointed by Monash University and the International WaterCentre, and later as a Research Fellow in Water Engineering for Developing Countries at Cranfield University. She also held an Honorary Research Fellow position and was a Visiting Lecturer in Water, Sanitation, and Health at the University of Leeds School of Civil Engineering. Her research focuses on water, sanitation, and hygiene (WaSH) in low-resource contexts, menstrual health and stigma, participatory methods bridging engineering, health, and well-being, and learning from failures in environmental and public health interventions. Barrington employs interactive approaches to explore socio-technical aspects of sanitation and menstruation, contributing insights into gender norms, cultural influences, and program sustainability.
