Brief introduction

Project Officer / EU funding specialist, Romanian Ministry of Administration and Interior (Romanian Police)

Education

Master of Arts in International Humanitarian Action

Academic profile

My main area of interest is the relation between control agencies and national minorities, specifically police – Roma communities. I am researching the integrated actions for long-term sustainable inclusion (social, economic and political) of citizens of Roma ethnicity and the most effective mechanisms to prevent and fight their discrimination and exclusion. Starting from security as a pre-requisite for development, I am incorporating and applying research in projects funded by different donors, designing actions aimed at building a policing by cooperation environment and facilitating local ownership in the provision of safety, primarily, but also other basic services in order to ensure a full citizenship. Currently, I am preparing my PhD application for a programme in criminology with a theme focusing on criminalization of Roma in rural settings in Romania.
