I am a Lecturer in Education and Sociology in the School of Education and Sociology (EDSOC). I also recently joined the Citizenship, ‘Race’ and Belonging (CRaB) Research Network. My work sits at the crossroads of inclusive education, bilingual special education, justice and equity studies, culturally sustaining and trauma-informed pedagogies for disabled, migrant and refugee children, and teacher education.
My research focuses on increasing access to equitable education for students identified with disabilities and from migrant and forced migrant backgrounds in primary and secondary education. I have developed significant research and teaching expertise in providing differentiated instructions for students in Italy, the United Kingdom, Lebanon and the United States.
I use the Disability Critical Race Theory in Education (DisCrit) framework as an intersectional lens to examine inclusive policies and practices in education systems in Europe and the United States. My paper on color-evasiveness and the disablement of asylum-seeking children in Italy is an example of the first application of DisCrit outside of the US context. This work provides a window to explore how neoliberal reforms in education, combined with increasing immigration, are influencing education for those children who face exclusionary practices.
In research and teaching I commit to creating a meaningful, equitable, and inclusive learning experience for diverse communities. My stance towards teaching, research and service activities is liberatory.
