Current research
At LUCSUS, I am part of the project ‘From everyday forms of resistance to transformational climate change adaptation of the urban poor’, funded by the Vetenskapsrådent VR. The project aims to develop a better understanding of the governance of climate change adaptation in informal urban settlements. It will investigate relationships between everyday risk perceptions, everyday resilience and everyday legal cultures, and their influence on the potential for transformational change.
