I do research into democratic innovations (such as citizens' forums, referendums, and participatory budgeting) and their impact on the political attitudes of citizens. During my Masters' I did research into political speeches and the world views that politicians put forward in there, in order to assess whether there exists such a thing as a 'populist worldview'.
I did a Bachelor in European Studies at Maastricht University and a Master in Social and Cultural Psychology at LSE. I am therefore very enthusiastic about bringing insights from political psychology into my current research.
