My dissertation takes philosopher Rosi Braidotti's notion of affectivity at the core of our existence as its starting point. How can affectivity enrich our understanding of agency and knowing?

My research aims to map pathways towards pedagogies that can accommodate difference and foster a more holistic relationality with the world.
