I am very happy to share that for the next eight months I’ll be a Visiting Fellow at the @ceu-polsci.bsky.social CEU Political Science Department.

That‘s what I call big news! 😉 🤩 I am thrilled and honored to have been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant #ERCCoG to investigate how political actors respond to ethical dilemmas of migration governance. Look out for vacancy announcements soon!

Great discussions yesterday at #EMNAustria2025 with @austria.iom.int A lot of food for thoughts on the future of migration governance but also of international cooperation more broadly.

Sometimes you leave a conference with just a few notes, sometimes with many ideas, and sometimes with empty hands. But sometimes, you walk away with both ideas and emotions. Thank you, escapes.unimi.it/archivio-con..., for this beautiful experience, and ActionAid Italia, for inviting me.
