With a background in jurisprudence, comparative religious studies, and practical theology, I specialize in normative pluralism and the management of diversity.I am especially interested in how different social units respond to diversity:states, churches, public institutions, international organizations, individuals,etc. Thus, my research includes such issues as multi-faith spaces, secularism and secularization, religious or belief minorities and their rights, or migration. As a theologian, I am especially interested in the issues of ecumenism, the theology of religions, and inter-faith dialogue and praxis. I have also extensive experience working with NGOs, faith-based organizations,and humanitarian workers. Our team of "A World of Neighbours" has been awarded the Swedish Diversity Index Award in 2020.
