Christiana Bugri

 

 

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.

​

I completed my Ph.D. at West Virginia University in 2024. My dissertation explores the nature and dynamics of policy change in young African democracies. I assess the dynamics of government attention to problems, the effects of elections on policy change, and the extent to which governments in young democracies are responsive to public priorities.​

​

My research areas include agenda-setting, African politics, public opinion, and public policy. I am broadly interested in examining agenda-setting in African democracies.​

​

I have taught courses in Comparative Politics and Public Administration. In 2024, I received the Eberly College Outstanding Graduate Teaching Assistant Award at West Virginia University.
