Om mig

I am a PhD student at the Department for Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. In my project, I aim to explore contemporary works of speculative fiction in Arabic, in particular dystopian and science fiction novels. My project would approach these novels from an eco-feminist perspective.

I have a professional and academic background as a translator and interpreter (Spanish -  English - Arabic), as well as in disaster management and humanitarian work.
