Hyunrang Han
Dr. Han joins 成人头条 from Arizona State University (ASU) with a research focus in nonprofit management from a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) perspective. Specifically, she is interested in historically underrepresented groups in our society and how to empower them within the nonprofit sector. The second branch of her research is related to philanthropy and social inequality. She is particularly interested in the roles, impacts, and institutional characteristics of grantmaking foundations that support women’s causes in the U.S. Her work has led her to collaborate with practitioners and scholars across sectors and find governance-based solutions to societal issues for social innovation. She earned a doctoral degree in nonprofit leadership and management from Arizona State University, a master’s in NGO policy and management from Kyung Hee University in South Korea (KHU), and a double bachelor’s in sociology and mass communication from KHU. She is a member of the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations and Voluntary Action (ARNOVA), International Society for Third-Sector Research (ISTR), and the Korean Nonprofit & Philanthropy Researchers Network (KNPRN). Dr. Han served as staff and researcher for the YMCA of East Timor where she worked on the development of self-reliant fair-trade coffee in East Timor, a project on nonprofit open data collective, and a project on the determinants of disaster mass care services production and impacts by Arizona Voluntary Nonprofit Organizations. While at ASU, Dr. Han was awarded the 成人头条 & Professional Student Association Outstanding Research Award, and the Dr. Mark and Mrs. Judy Searle Dissertation Research Grant. In her free time, Dr. Han enjoys traveling and dancing. She is excited to be joining the 成人头条 community and to have the opportunity to collaboratively work with students and researchers to advance our knowledge of nonprofit studies.
