Presentation

Min forskning och specialkompetens gäller breda teman i anslutning till asylsökande och flyktingskap. Jag har undersökt bland annat skydd av stadsflyktingar, sysselsättning av unga med flyktingbakgrund samt utvisning av asylsökande. Jag är speciellt intresserad av att sammanföra begrepp inom kulturgeografi med flyktingforskning, kvalitativ forskning och deltagande metoder. Jag upplever att forskningen på området bör sträva efter att ändra lagstiftningen och politiken i en mer human riktning.
