Peg's research spans the political economy of global health (particularly pharmaceutical and vaccine production in Africa), EU trade negotiations with Global South countries, and the role of emerging powers like South Africa in international regimes. She has published extensively on norm contestation, trade policy localization, and post-colonial trade frameworks.
Her recent publications address gender norm limitations in African responses to Covid-19, pharmaceutical policy localization in East Africa, and the dynamics of cross-border investment governance. These works emphasize institutional frameworks, normative power, and regional development challenges.
