Research

My key research areas are gender, peace and conflict. I am especially interested in war crimes, protection of civilians during and post conflict and gender crimes such as sexual violence. In my research I build on feminist theory and I am often inspired by sociology and philosophy.

My research is focused on the civilian perspective in conflict and bottom-up approaches. I am mainly interested in qualitative methods such as narrative inquiry and discourse analysis. Currently my research focus on stigmatization against survivors of war-time abuses such as sexual violence and child soldiering. 

Supervision 

I am happy to supervise students who would like to write projects about gender and conflict, conflict-related sexual violence, atrocity crimes and genocide (including from a legal perspective), the responsibility to protect (R2P), the laws of armed conflict, protection of civilians, ethics of war and peace, human rights issues related to conflict and human rights law and/or who wants to use feminist IR theory. Other proposals are also welcomed.
