Interest in migration and law
I was involved in this project as a student assistant. From early on, I have been deeply fascinated by the field of migration—not only as a legal or political matter but also as a deeply human and social experience. I currently work in this field, focusing on how people navigate legality, documentation, and bureaucracy, and how their personal stories and cultural perspectives shape their understanding of being “legal” or “recognized.”
The human experience
Working on this project was particularly meaningful to me because it connected legal anthropology to lived experiences—births, marriages, divorces and deaths—moments that define all of us, no matter where we come from. One of the most memorable parts of this work was speaking with people whose lives were suspended between countries, systems, and identities. They were not just “subjects” of law, but storytellers of resilience.
