Presentation
I am a senior lecturer and researcher in Social Work and Disability Studies and I teach on master and bachelor level courses at The Department of Social Work. In my research I focus on agency and disability and how agency is socially and politically mediated, distributed and attributed. I have conducted ethnographic and participatory research on personal assistance and digital and spatial accessibility. Further I am interested in how inaccessibility and discrimination of people with disabilities is legitimized and normalized despite current regulations and conventions on human rights.
