Adam is an Assistant Professor of Urban Resilience (Research) at the Urban Institute, Singapore Management University. His research examines how individuals and communities perceive and respond to complex urban challenges, with a focus on resilience, liveability, and human-centred urban systems.
Drawing on environmental psychology, human factors, and socio-technical systems, he studies behavioural and psychosocial responses to environmental change, digitalisation, and urban risk. His research seeks to translate these insights into policy-relevant frameworks that inform urban planning, risk communication, and resilience-building interventions.
