About
I am a social worker with a master's in International Social Welfare and Health Policy and a PhD in social work from the University of Gothenburg. My teaching experience and research interests are related to integration policy for new refugees and immigrants, the introduction program, social problems and inequality, social work in NAV, user involvement, intersectionality, anti-racist social work, critical social work, and social work in a global context. I am responsible for the courses: ‘Intersectionality: Interaction of Social Categories’ (SP9230), ‘Social work in a global perspective’ (SOSV32220) and ‘The Intersection of Social Categories in Social Work’(SFV4300).
