Short presentation

My research focuses temporalities in relation to urban space and processes of marginalization in cities. In my postdoctoral project titled “Just Times? Temporalities and Uncertainties for Marginalised Groups in Cities”, I examine how spatialities and temporalities contribute to the daily lives of Filipina domestic workers in Hong Kong and what the implications are for this group. I am a recipient of the Marie-Skłodowska Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship, funded by the EU (Horizon Europe).
