Welcome

I am a Ph.D. researcher at the Geneva Graduate Institute and an affiliate with its Gender Center. I hold a Master of Public Policy degree from the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin, and I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Gender, Sexuality, and Society Studies and Psychology from the American University of Paris.

My doctoral research focuses on gendered labor relations in post-2010 Tunisia, particularly within the context of rural and peasant-led movements. I am intrigued by how gender influences both production and reproduction dynamics and how these, in turn, shape contention. I delve into topics like feminized labor, social reproduction theories, and the changing gender division of labor within contentious and agrarian settings.

My research approach is deeply rooted in ethnographic principles, often involving hands-on experiences working on farms in various parts of Tunisia, which I chronicle in my Ethnography Project blog (coming soon).

My research has been supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Center for Maghreb Studies in Tunis, and the Institut de Recherche sur le Maghreb Contemporain. My research has been published in the Review of African Political Economy and the Agrarian South: Journal of Political Economy, and has appeared in Meshkal
