Current Project: Expanding & evolving education resources of refugees: from camp to resettlement
A Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie early stage researcher, my current work explores the education experiences and digital resources of refugees to find ways to address education gaps and the digital divide. I am an interdisciplinary researcher, with an academic background in communications, English literature, and conflict transformation & social justice. As a CITI-GENS Fellow, I work within the School of Social Sciences, Education & Social Work (SSESW) and School of History, Anthropology, Philosophy and Politics (HAPP) at QUB. Other interests include ESL, e-learning, inclusion, equity, trauma, the capabilities approach, education policy and the impact of education on civic participation and integration.
