Presentation

My research interests lie at the intersection of housing studies, migration studies, and urban studies, with a particular focus on the spatial and social expressions of informality and precarity. Currently, I am primarily engaged in the research project In the Grey Zones of Housing Provision, where I explore formal/informal hybridity, governance, and regulation within the framework of Swedish housing provision, in the context of the so-called green transition in towns and communities in northern Sweden.

I hold a PhD in Urban Studies after defending my dissertation Winding Roads in the Housing Inequality of Sweden: Stories of Market Practices, Refugee Placement Policies, and Housing Precarity (in Swedish) in 2023. The dissertation is an ethnographic study of practices and policy and aims to nuance and deepen the understanding of the consequences of housing inequality in a Swedish context by analyzing the specific positions of asylum seekers and newly arrived individuals within the framework of the Swedish housing policy situation.
