Forskning

I am an interdisciplinary social researcher with background in International Development and Global Studies, and work experience in EU institutions, NGOs, and private sector. 

I have experience researching racial and social inequalities in gentrifying urban scenarios using feminist methods, in collaboration with the research institute Barcelona Lab for Urban Environmental Justice and Sustainability (BCNUEJ).

Right now, I focus my research on alternatives to the dominant socio-economic and political system, green transition, degrowth and post-development. As part of my PhD, I am involved in a research project on Alternative Green Futures in which I analyze alternative green communities in India, contributing knowledge to cross-case comparisons in collaboration with researchers from Denmark, South Africa, and India. In particular, I investigate the socio-economic and political practices of the green alternatives and explore possible points of learning and cross-pollination between the alternative green communities and the wider society. More information on the project can be found here.

Overall, I am strongly interested in grassroot community organisation, cooperative movements, imaginaries of alternative green futures and societies, and prefigurative practices such as life in eco-villages and intentional communities.
