My name is Gabriela Neagu (http://www.iccv.ro/en/staff/researchers/gabriela-neagu-en/), and I am Senior Researcher at the Research Institute for Quality of Life, Romanian Academy. I have over 20 years of experience in social research, during which I conducted qualitative and quantitative studies in which I was involved in developing research methodology (focus groups, self-structured interviews, surveys), data collection and analysis, research reports etc. In much of this research, I was the research coordinator. Most of the research I was involved in focused on analyzing the access to and success of education of different categories of the population, evaluating educational programs or public policy intervention in the field of education. I am the author of many reports, studies, and articles on social policy, quality of life, sociology of education, social mobility, ITC in education, NEETs, etc. I was also an evaluator for international projects (COST projects) and for fellowship research programme (SMART LOIRE VALLEY-SLV).
