FNRS RESEARCH FELLOW

Oct. 2017 - oct. 2021

Louvain-la-Neuve

Since October 2017, I am conducting a Ph.D. thesis within the GIRSEF, a renowned interdisciplinary research group in Socialisation, Education, and Training. The objective of my thesis is to analyse the participation of stakeholder organisations within the European Open Method of Coordination (OMC) in the sector of education, called the Education and Training 2020 strategic framework.

This thesis is part of a larger research project - called "Living together in an uncertain world. What role for the school?" - including 8 senior academics and 4 Ph.D. students. The objective of the project is to understand the transformations of the roles of education in a context of globalization, risk, and uncertainty.


In order to conduct my research, I use a combination of methods:
- Data mining and lexicometric/statistical analysis of documents produced by the Education and Training 2020 working groups.
- Interviews with key actors of the ET2020 working groups (Commission members, Member State representatives, stakeholder organisation representatives).
- Observation of Working Groups plenary meetings and peer-learning activities.
