About
I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Primary and Secondary Teacher Education at OsloMet. My research is situated within the broader field of environmental and sustainability education, with a particular focus on ethico-political education in response to socio-ecological challenges. I am interested in posthuman and critical perspectives, questions related to hope, imaginaries, and utopia, as well as different sustainability discourses and their place in education. Theoretically, I draw on perspectives from semiotics and political philosophy. I am also a board member of the Norwegian Research Network for Sustainability (NABU).
In my postdoctoral project, I examine how schools can engage with social imaginaries in a context shaped by socio-ecological crises. In collaboration with teachers, I explore sustainability discourses that are underrepresented in public debate and in schools, such as degrowth.
