I’m part of RASS’s coordinating team, advocating for bottom-up African regionalism research. My focus: exploring exit from African regional organizations and the role of race in international organizations.
Research fields: Decolonial international relations, the design of IOs and ROs, African regional integration, and Africa in global politics.
