His work increasingly addresses Greenlandic labor market challenges and cross-national comparative studies of employment policies in European welfare states.

Ravn leads multiple significant research projects including 'Ulige muligheder? COVID-19 pandemiens effekter på børn og unges deltagelse i foreningsidræt, trivsel og overgang til ungdomsuddannelse' (2022-2025), 'Prospektiv kortlægning og følgeforskning i Hjørring Kommunes Ungegaranti' (2022-2031), and 'Labour market integration of asylum seekers and refugees in main EU receiving countries' (2020-2021).

His research has substantial policy impact, with frequent media appearances in Danish press discussing employment services, job centers, and labor market reforms, including commentary on government proposals affecting job centers and refugee integration policies.
