Andrea has been working since 2018/19 at the Institute for Asian and African Studies in the field of Transregional Southeast Asian Studies at Humboldt University of Berlin. Her thematic focus includes social and political inequalities and the challenges of policymaking caused by various forms of displacement and migration, as well as the difficulties posed by multiple hegemonies and colonial legacies for (critical) qualitative social research and methodological approaches in heterogeneous and volatile contexts of the Global South.

Andrea is the scientific coordinator of the project co2libri: Conceptual Collaboration: Living Borderless Research Interaction at the Berlin University Alliance. The project aims to make knowledge, theories, and research practices from the ‘Global South’ visible within Berlin’s research landscape.
