Biography
I am an anthropologist with a PhD in Political and Social Sciences from the University of Liège and in Anthropology of Contemporary Worlds from the University of Milan-Bicocca. My thesis focused on the culinary practices and eating habits of Moroccan women in the context of migration. I am now a lecturer at the Faculty of Social Sciences, within the CEDEM - Centre for the Study of Ethnicity and Migration, and the LASC - Social and Cultural Anthropology Laboratory. I teach courses in the anthropology of food, the anthropology of material culture, urban socio-anthropology, theories of integration, multiculturalism and diversity, refugee studies, and studies on gender, intersectionality and migration. My most recent research projects focus on the food transition from a perspective focused on diversity and inclusion, the public opinion and citizen initiatives concerning migrants, cultural and artistic practices related to migration, integration policies and access to rights, as well as discrimination against Muslims.
