Lisa Ward is joined by her colleague Associate Professor Mia Rahim to chat about his incredible journey to academia and his research which led him to being an Associate Professor of Law at the University of New England.
Mia talks about his doctoral dissertation assessing the current regulatory framework and creating a regulatory framework necessary for raising the social responsibility performances of global corporations. Additionally, he discusses the changes in the relationship between governments and transnational corporations over the years.
Mia was a judge for in Bangladesh before entering academia at the beginning of 2013. Mia joined UNE in 2019 and relishes teaching Corporations Law and Corporate Social Responsibility and the Law.
His current research project relates to transnational corporations’ products that impact on people and the environment in RRR settings (for example, nanoparticles in fertiliser).
Mia finds that spending less time commuting and more time researching is one of the great advantages of working in a regional university like UNE.
