About me
I work as a research and course coordinator in the research group Global Disaster Medicine – Health Needs and Response.
In my role I coordinate the educational and administrative activities of the research group. My role includes collaborating with course leaders to facilitate the implementation of various educational programs, where I plan course schedules, coordinate with lecturers and students, and manage communication with student administration. I also work with the development of course and exercise materials, including ViTriEx and AnTriEx.
In addition to these educational responsibilities, I provide administrative support to the research group by organizing meetings, planning events, reporting to donors, and assisting with writing grant applications. I am also involved in ongoing research projects and external monitoring monitoring, ensuring the group's activities are aligned with the latest developments in our field.
Prior to joining KI I worked at Uppsala University with the Master’s Programme in Global Health and on the Horizon Europe project GAPs: Decentering the Study of Migrant Returns and Return Policies.
