Research Profile

Inna has always been interested in promoting equality, peace and justice, especially for underrepresented groups. An ethnic minority herself, she considers it her mission to make the voices of the least represented groups heard, listened to and considered, with the goal of making them part of the democratic decision-making process. Her professional experience in both public and non-governmental sectors—parliamentary structures, public administration, civil society and research—makes her believe in achieving a social contract based on mutual respect and democratic freedoms and values.

In the Re-Mig project at bicc, Inna focuses on the aspirations, strategies and practices of members of displaced minorities with regard to solutions to conflict-induced displacement.
