About me
Hi! I am a PhD research fellow at the University of Agder. My work explores the values and perceptions behind climate policies, focusing on trust, gender, and justice. “What are we really talking about when we discuss climate policies?”
In addition, I investigate sustainable imagination in educational settings, bridging creativity, sociology, and education.
In the last few years, I have been travelling around Norway and Europe to present my research. I love communicating my research and connecting with people on climate, creativity and communication.
Let me know how we can collaborate!
