Before his PhD at the Australian National University and post-doc at the Université de Montréal, he studied developmental psychology under Jean Piaget at the University of Geneva. He has carried out research in Australia, Canada, Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya and Papua New Guinea, and more recently in Indonesia, India and Nepal.
