I am a social scientist, working on the field of migration and employment in the last 12 years. I am interested on migrant experiences of work in the contemporary neoliberal economic system. I am Senior Lecturer in the School of Management, Faculty of Business and Law at Anglia Ruskin University. My research interests include intersectional approaches to migration and integration. My work includes research on undocumented migrants and the notion of status as a social construct.

I am now researching the intersections of environment, climate change, disasters and im/mobilities. I work on my PhD at the University of Vienna. My work with and experience as a migrant woman in Austria shape my efforts to weave collaborations across groups and sectors to decenter and decolonize in both activist and scholarly spaces. My activism intersects gender, environmental, and social justice struggles as well as a decolonial lens and human rights.

Francesco Pasetti is a Research Fellow at CIDOB in the area of Migrations and adjunct professor at the Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI) and at Pompeu Fabra University. His interest in “migration matters” dates back to his experience at the ASK Research Center (Bocconi University) where he developed a two-year project on diasporic media. Turned his attention to the world of politics, he delved into the study of migrant integration and its politics at GRITIM-UPF as PhD candidate. In his thesis, Pasetti addressed the issue of integration policies in Europe through a mixed-method investigation, paying special attention to the political imaginaries that lie beyond citizenship regimes in Italy and Spain. His expertise on integration policy grows in parallel as research collaborator for the Migration Policy Center (European University Institute) between 2013 and 2015. Since 2017, he has specialized in policy evaluation based on indicators. Currently, he is working on policies and political discourses on refugees, paying special attention to the Spanish context.
