Since 2017, Cristina Del Biaggio has been working as Assistant Professor at the University of Grenoble Alpes. After completing a PhD in 2013, she was invited to be a post-doc researcher at the University of Amsterdam. From 2014 to 2017, she worked as Project Leader for the Swiss non-governmental organisation, Vivre Ensemble (www.asile.ch), which provides information and documentation on asylum rights. From 2007 to 2016, she worked at the Geography and Environment Department of Geneva University, Switzerland, as a teaching and research assistant (2007-2013), then as a lecturer (2015-2016) and finally as a scientific collaborator tasked with organising a symposium on migration and asylum at Geneva University (October 2016).
While her PhD research focused on the regional institutionalisation processes of the Alpine transnational space, since 2012 she has focused on the geographical, political and social issues relating to migration and borders. Her research also addresses the media’s treatment of migratory issues and accommodation policy for asylum seekers in Switzerland.
Her PhD thesis was published by Peter Lang in 2016.
