Overview
I am a Human Geographer based in the School of Geography and Planning. My research aims to understand everyday experiences of statelessness; thinking beyond the status as an abstract legal conundrum and conceptualising statelessness as a complex political, social, and cultural status rooted in the geographical everyday.
I am also interested in the design and practice of creative research methods to conduct ethnographic research, exploring how creative, participatory research methodologies can be ethically utilised with vulnerable populations. My current research utilises and examines scrapbooking as a form of slow elicitation with stateless individuals.
