This seminar will explore the Relief Maps digital tool and its possibilities for research and action on inequalities and discriminations from an intersectionality perspective, in three dimensions: the social dimension (positions and identities of gender, social class, ethnicity, age, etc.), geography (places in daily life), and psychology (effects on emotions).

Professor at the Political and Social Sciences Department at the UPF. Coordinator of the Research Group on Gender and Inequalities (GRETA) at the Political and Social Sciences Department at UPF. She has been a visiting research fellow at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (United States), Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa (Brasil) and University College Dublin (Ireland). She has also been a PNDP/CAPES postdoctoral researcher at UEPG (2015), Juan de la Cierva postdoctoral researcher at Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (2016-2020) and Serra Hunter lecturer at Universitat de Barcelona (2020-2022).
Her research focuses on the study of social inequalities from an intersectional, spatial and emotional perspective applied to issues such as the right to the city, gender-based violence or LGBTI-phobia. She is interested in the spatial articulations among social categories such as gender, class, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age or (dis)ability, and their effects on lived experience. She has also developed specific methodologies for the study of intersectionality, such as the Relief Maps, which won the Ramon Molinas Award (2018) for the best social impact project. She is currently leading the project INTERMAPS on social inequalities in everyday life and coordinates the research on the effects of anti-gender discourses within the RESIST project.
