Fields of interest
My focus of research is in the fields of sociology of education and
women's studies in education. I have conducted analysis of gender equality
in educational policies, curriculum and school textbooks, ethnographic
studies in secondary schools, and longitudinal life history research on
young people's transitions into adulthood. I am interested in the
construction of gender, nationality, difference and processes of inclusion
and exclusion in education.
