My scientific activities aim at studying the dynamics of social innovation as new ways of doing, framing organising and knowing in the (long-term) care sector in Europe. I focus more specifically on the role played by Third Sector organisations in challenging existing structures and initiating deep societal transformations toward sustainability. My work combines insights from both socioeconomics and gender studies and has a strong empirical anchoring. I am committed in implementing research methods with a transdisciplinary design as most projects are conducted in collaboration with field actors.
