Dr Sabri has collaborated with and consulted for ministries, government agencies, and international partners.

His applied research and advisory roles extend to civil society and international organisations, reflecting his commitment to linking research with advocacy and policy reform. Dr Sabri Sulaiman is a sociologist whose scholarship is grounded in analysing how social structures, institutions, and power relations shape human experiences, inequalities, well-being, and life trajectories across the life course and across world regions. His work spans the sociology of children and families, global and comparative sociology with a strong Global South–Global North orientation, alongside the sociology of disability, sociology of ageing, sociology of labour, sociology of population health and well-being, sociology of violence, sociology of care, and the sociology of governance. His research is deeply informed by national and global sociological perspectives, examining how globalisation, transnational policies, international norms, and cross-national institutions shape national systems, local realities, human behaviour, social and human development, and population health and well-being. Drawing on sociological theory and applied, comparative, and empirical approaches, Dr Sabri investigates the social construction of childhood and family life; demographic and structural transformations; disability rights and inclusion; ageing and long-term care; labour stratification; and the social determinants of health and well-being. He also analyses interpersonal, structural, and institutional violence across the life course—including child maltreatment, gender-based violence, and elder abuse situating these issues within broader global, political, and socio-economic systems. A key feature of his sociological contribution is the development of sociological indicators, measurement tools, and analytical frameworks that capture well-being, quality of life, inequality, deprivation, and social protection across diverse cultural and national contexts. Through his commitment to applied sociology and sociology of governance, Dr Sabri translates sociological evidence into actionable, evidence-based interventions and policy recommendations, supporting governments, organisations, and institutions to strengthen social protection, improve governance systems, social and human development, and enhance population health and well-being.
