I am an Assistant Professor of Political Science in the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences at the University of Amsterdam. Before, I worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher and Lecturer in Comparative Political Economy at the University of Konstanz. I obtained my PhD in Social Policy from the University of Kent and my BA/MA in Sociology from the University of Hamburg. I was a visiting researcher at the Universities of Amsterdam, Aalborg, and Leuven.
My interdisciplinary research and teaching is driven by a fascination for how globalization and European social integration are shaping societies as well as how people react to these changes through their social and political attitudes and behavior. I investigate some of the main challenges in politics, such as social rights, the development of new social policies, migration, Euroscepticism, and the increasing inequality in the wake of recent crises such as the financial crisis, COVID-19, and the war in Ukraine.
I have received various international research grants and prizes for my academic work, and I am currently part of several (cross-national) research projects on these topics, including the Horizon 2020 project “The Future of European Social Citizenship”.

About the Migration Network Hub
What is the Migration Network Hub?
The Hub is a virtual “meeting space” where governments, stakeholders and experts can access and share migration-related information and services. It provides curated content, analysis and information on a variety of topics.
The Hub aims to support UN Member States in the implementation, follow-up and review of the Global Compact for Migration by serving as a repository of existing evidence, practices and initiatives, and facilitating access to knowledge sharing via online discussions, an expert database and demand-driven, tailor-made solutions (launching in 2021).
Submit your content
What content is displayed in the Hub?
The Hub aims to help you find information on migration, ranging from policy briefs and journal articles, existing portals and platforms and what they offer, to infographics and videos. The different types of resources submitted by users undergo peer review by a panel of experts from within the UN and beyond, before being approved for inclusion in the Hub. To provide guidance to users based on findings of the needs assessment, the content is ordered so that more comprehensive and global resources are shown before more specific and regional ones. Know a great resource? Please submit using the links above and your suggestion will be reviewed. Please see the draft criteria for existing practices here.
Apply to join the Peer Review Roster
Content submitted to the Migration Network Hub is first peer reviewed by experts in the field from both the UN and beyond. Applications are welcomed to join the roster on an ongoing basis. Learn more here.
