Lauren Dula is an assistant professor of public administration and a Ph.D. in public affairs graduate of the O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University, Bloomington. Her research focuses on gender, equity, and diversity both in the nonprofit and public sectors. She combines traditional public administration themes, such as representative bureaucracy, and organizational and governance theories with social theories from psychology and sociology in the study of nonprofits and the public sector.
Dula publishes in top nonprofit and public administration journals, including Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly, Nonprofit Management and Leadership, and Public Administration Review. Her research spans studies of philanthropic giving, particularly by and for women and girls, and understanding profiles in donor activity and other issues of power and representation in the nonprofit sector.
