Valentina Zagaria has recently submitted her PhD in Anthropology at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Her thesis, entitled "Burning borders: migration, death and dignity in a Tunisian coastal town", was based on two years ethnographic research, and examines how responsibility and belonging are shaped and curtailed by different migratory projects and gendered expectations in south-eastern Tunisia. As part of the SFTM team, Valentina will begin a new research project on the intimately political aspects of Libyan women’s lives while in long-term or intermittent exile in Tunisia.
