Current Position
Ph.D. Peace and Conflict Research, Uppsala University, 2014
M.A. Peace and Conflict Research, Uppsala University, 2004
B.A. Political Science, Örebro University, 2001
Since February 2014 I am employed as a researcher and assistant professor at the Department of Peace and
Conflict Research at Uppsala University. The research is carried out within the Causes of Peace – The Botswana,
Malawi and Zambia “Zone of Peace” project funded by The Swedish Research Council (U-forsk). Botswana,
Malawi and Zambia constitute a “Zone of Peace” spared from violent conflict since independence. The project
aims to explain why peace has prevailed in these countries despite being located in the world’s most volatile
continent with all their neighbors struck by conflict. The teaching primarily consists of being course convenor of
the Peace, War and Democratization MA-course as well as supervising six MA-theses.
Previous Positions
From June 2008 until February 2014 I was a PhD-candidate at the Department of Peace and Conflict Research at
Uppsala University. My dissertation deals with communal conflicts and why they turn violent in some regions but
not in others. I use a comparative approach, based on field-work, and compare three different regions – Darfur,
Eastern Sudan and Jonglei – of Sudan and Southern Sudan.
I spent the spring of 2012 as a visiting scholar at the Center on International Cooperation at New York
University. During my time as PhD-candidate I have also served as a member of an academic task force set up in
order to support the work of the UNSG Special Envoy on Darfur (Jan Eliasson). In addition, I have worked as a
consultant for the Mediation Support Unit at the Department of Political Affairs, United Nations.
From August 2005 until I started the PhD-program I worked within the Uppsala Conflict Data Program
(UCDP). Before taking up the position as project leader for the Uppsala Conflict Database in 2006 I worked as a
research assistant with prevention and human security issues.
