I am a researcher and educator (PhD) in design, gender studies and digital humanities. I recently defended my doctoral thesis which was a collaboration between Umeå Institute of Design and Umeå Centre for Gender Studies (The Gender Research School): “Feminist Design Strategies for Transforming Design Museums Towards More Just Futures” (26 Sep 2024).
