Personal profile
Overview
I am an ESRC NWSSDTP funded PhD student at Politics Department of the University of Manchester and an Associate Research Fellow at the Peace Research Institute Frankfurt. My research examines the possibilities and challenges of feminist knowledge production in multilateral institutions, with a particular focus on multilateral nuclear policy spaces. I explore the development and relationship of different feminist articulations and practices in these spaces in times of increasing militarisation. With an interdisciplinary background in Political Science, International Relations, and Gender Studies, I hold an MSc in Gender, Peace, and Security (with Distinction) from the London School of Economics (LSE). I have several years of experience across academic, civil society, and policy sectors, having worked and being involved with civil society organisations such as the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons and the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom, as well as policy-oriented research institutions like the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute and the German Council on Foreign Relations.
