By using ethnography and qualitative methods supplemented with policy analysis, my interdisciplinary work focuses on a range of contexts in both the global South and North. My approach is to study small places in order to discuss wider social issues. I have written about identities and social innovation and social enterprises with sense of belonging and community as main components. My ethnographic work concerns migration, transnational academia, sense of belonging, freedom of expression, human rights and the UN global goals.
