Briefly
I have a background in practical educational work in various fields before starting my research career. I am interested in the concept of citizenship, focusing in the philosophies of Paulo Freire and John Dewey and aiming at the combination of these two. My philosophical work is linked to theory and practice of learning in civil society in Tanzania and Uganda through the GROW-project, under which I am currently working (Growth into citizenship in civil society encounters).
