I am assistant professor of Human Rights Studies. I have a law degree and have earned my degree as Doctor of Laws in public international law. Apart from teaching and doing research I am also director of studies and responsible for co-ordinating the B.A. Program in Human Rights Studies.
In my research I am foremost interested in legal systemic conflicts. Previously, I focused on the use of military force in relation to human rights, while my current research is primarily involving human rights and water issues.
