I have over 17 years of experience as a sociologist of migration and gender (Central European University, University of Warwick), a policy analyst (European Commission, DG Joint Research Centre) and Migration and Freedom of Movement Adviser (OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights). Alongside with my research and policy work, I designed innovative ways of communicating scientific knowledge and engaging policymakers, civil society and young people in strategic and forward-looking debates about human rights, migration and integration. My latest achievement is the development of Destination Europe, an innovative educational and training tool / serious game about migration and integration governance for young people and migration practitioners. Check it out at destinationeurope.uni.lu (co-created with the European Migration Network).
