He also co-leads a research team looking at advancing refugee inclusion in the Asia Pacific region, in collaboration with several scholars with lived experience of forced displacement. Alongside this research, Tristan coordinates the Kaldor Centre's Displaced Scholars Peer Mentoring Program and the Kaldor Centre's Emerging Scholars Network.
