Darllenydd
Trosolwyg
Rwy'n Ddarllenydd mewn Gwaith Cymdeithasol ac yn dysgu ar y rhaglen MA Gwaith Cymdeithasol. Rwy'n Gyfarwyddwr Cynorthwyol CASCADE, y Ganolfan Ymchwil a Datblygu Gofal Cymdeithasol Plant ac yn arweinydd academaidd ar gyfer Cyfranogiad y Cyhoedd.
Mae fy niddordebau ymchwil yn eang gysylltiedig â gwaith cymdeithasol gyda phlant a theuluoedd. Fel gweithiwr cymdeithasol cofrestredig, mae gen i ddiddordeb eang yn y berthynas rhwng y wladwriaeth a'r teulu. Mae hyn yn cynnwys polisïau ac arferion sydd wedi'u cynllunio i atal plant rhag mynd i mewn i'r system gofal, yn ogystal â rôl y wladwriaeth fel rhiant. Mae gen i ddiddordeb arbennig mewn trawsnewidiadau pobl ifanc o ofal i fod yn oedolion. Rwy'n aelod o INTRAC (Rhwydwaith Ymchwil Rhyngwladol ar Bontio i Oedolion o Ofal) ac gyda'r Athro Tehila Refaeli, yn arwain grŵp diddordeb arbennig sy'n gysylltiedig â rhianta https://globalintrac.com/theme-groups/care-leavers-as-parents/.
Rwy'n ymrwymedig i gryfhau'r berthynas rhwng ymchwil, polisi ac ymarfer. Daeth y syniad ar gyfer fy astudiaeth ôl-ddoethurol a oedd yn ymwneud â chanlyniadau, profiadau a chefnogaeth i rieni mewn gofal y wladwriaeth ac yn gadael y wladwriaeth, gan bobl ifanc sydd â phrofiad o ofal. Mae'r canfyddiadau yn tynnu sylw at stigma a gwahaniaethu eang, cefnogaeth heb ei ddatblygu ac amrywiol, a lefelau pryderus o wahanu plant / rhieni. Yn dilyn yr ymchwil, cyd-gynhyrchwyd siarter arfer da ac fe'i mabwysiadwyd gan ystod o awdurdodau lleol a sefydliadau'r trydydd sector. Mae rhagor o fanylion am y gwaith hwn i'w gweld yma: https://www.exchangewales.org/supporting-parents-in-and-leaving-care-messagestocorporateparents/
Mae fy mhrosiectau ymchwil cyfredol yn cynnwys gwerthusiadau o'r cynllun peilot Incwm Sylfaenol i Bobl sy'n Gadael Gofal yng Nghymru a gwasanaeth Camu i Fyny Camu i Lawr y Rhwydwaith Maethu, ac archwilio rôl Cynghorwyr Personol yng Nghymru.

Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
Mae fy niddordebau ymchwil yn gysylltiedig yn eang â gwaith cymdeithasol gyda phlant a theuluoedd, yn enwedig ymdrechion i atal gwahanu teuluoedd, profiadau a chanlyniadau sy'n gysylltiedig â'r system gofal, a rôl y wladwriaeth fel rhiant corfforaethol. Mae gen i ddiddordeb mewn goruchwylio prosiectau yn y meysydd hyn a byddwn yn hapus i siarad â darpar fyfyrwyr am brosiectau posibl.
