As a Development Studies scholar, I consider myself as an interdisciplinary researcher, given that the field amalgamates several disciplines. I am particularly keen on searching for worldviews that can change both the development narrative and migration mantra within the framework of the Global South. The general logic is to develop a discourse that departs from the “dogmatic” views that more or less seem rigidly applicable within the Global North. I hold a bachelor degree in Education from the University of Cape Coast, Ghana, an MSc degree in Development Studies from London South Bank University, UK. I am currently in the final phase of my PhD in Development Studies at the University of Lisbon, IGOT, Portugal.

I am a doctoral candidate in Curriculum and Instruction at Middle East Technical University, Turkey. My research interests focus on curriculum development and instructional strategies for education in emergencies. I am currently conducting a cross-cultural comparative study on the language development of newly arrived migrant students in monolingual countries, namely in Turkey and Germany. The purpose of my research is to explore how language curriculum is planned and implemented in both countries and reveal what structural factors in pre-, trans-, and post-migration ecologies predict the language proficiency of newly arrived migrant students.
