Curriculum vitae
I completed my PhD in Sociology and Social Research (University of Verona) in 2009.
In 2021 I obtained the National Scientific Qualification (ASN) for the qualification of Associate Professor, sector General Sociology.
My main research interests are:
- welfare systems from a comparative perspective;
- issues related to the governance and evaluation of social policies at regional, national and European levels, with particular attention to the issues of ageing, family and migrants.
In the research activity, I have mainly worked in interdisciplinary teams (economists, psychologists, statisticians, pedagogists), adopting a mixed methods approach with the integration of quantitative and qualitative techniques.
In addition to academic activity, I have carried out consultancy and research for national and international bodies including:
- Observatory of Expenditure and Public Policies-Regional Council of Veneto;
- ISTAT-National Institute of Statistics;
- European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA);
- OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR).
Since 2010, I have been teaching undergraduate, master's, and doctoral degree courses. I have also carried out teaching and research activities in Europe (Spain: Miguel Hernández University, Alicante; Norway: UiT The Arctic University of Norway, Tromsø; and Asia (China: Renmin University, Beijing; Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, Wuhan; Henan Normal University, Xinxiang; Japan: Waseda University, Tokyo; Keio University, Tokyo; Juntendo University, Tokyo).
I was a member of the Scientific Council of the Social Policy section of the Italian Association of Sociology (AIS) in two mandates (2016-2018, 2019-21) and Head of the Social Area of the Economics Living Lab, a spin-off of the University of Verona (2017-2022).
I am a member of the Scientific Committee Learning, Education and Active Ageing, established for the Research Program "Age-It Ageing Well in an Ageing Society", funded by the European Union - Next Generation EU.
Currently, I am involved in a global team participating in the "Age-Friendly Cities Framework", supported by the World Health Organization (WHO), for the validation of The Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Questionnaire (AFCCQ).
