Marianna Betti

Institute of Social Anthropology, NTNU

EASA Election candidate 2015 and 2016
EASA Election candidate 2013 and 2014

Election statement 2015: I am Italian but I have studied anthropology in USA and Norway. I reside in Trondheim and I work as research assistant for the Institute of Social Anthropology, NTNU. My research specializes in East Africa, generational change, gender and development. Lately I am working with work migration in Norway and on the financial crisis in Italy. I enjoy travelling and I have a very flexible job. Working in the EASA committee will surely be an enriching experience. I would like to play an active role in selecting the next EASA host institution, as well as formulating the themes for the next EASA conference. Most importantly, I would like to represent the younger members of EASA and especially those academic expats like me. I hope the fact that I am a young scholar and I have an international profile will weigh positively in my candidature.

Nominated and supported by Liv Haram (NTNU) and Bjørn Enge Bertelsen (UiB)
