Dr Stacey Pizzino is a Visiting Fellow at King’s College London and a global health researcher at the University of Queensland, specialising in the intersections of armed conflict, environmental degradation, climate change, and population health. Her work examines the health and human consequences of explosive ordnance, toxic remnants of war and climate-driven hazards, with a focus on advancing equitable and evidence-informed responses across the Asia-Pacific region.

Dr Pizzino is a Fellow with the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR) Conventional Weapons Programme, contributing to international policy on the humanitarian impacts of weapons systems and their broader implications for health, security, and sustainable development. She led the largest multi-country study on casualties from landmines and explosive remnants of war, analyzing data from over 100,000 individuals across 17 countries to strengthen global efforts in prevention, response, and survivor assistance.

In addition to her research on conflict settings, she is Co-Lead of the CliMigHealth Asia-Pacific Hub, part of an international network driving policy and education at the nexus of climate change, migration, and health. A regular contributor to international policy forums, including the United Nations, Dr Pizzino works extensively across academic, government, and humanitarian sectors to ensure research directly informs policy and practice in vulnerable communities.
