 ABOUT me and this blog: 

My name is Laia Colomer, and I am an archaeologist with an extensive professional and academic experience in heritage management, public archaeology and applied & critical heritage in Europe. Currently, I am a post-doc Marie SkÅ‚odowska-Curie Fellow, at Linnaeus University (Sweden).

 

Raised in a bicultural and bilingual country (Catalonia, in Spain), I have been living in several countries during my academic and professional career: the UK, The Netherlands, Italy, and now in Sweden. My family is also touched by international mobility, either professionally or by adoption.

 

My current research is focused on the uses of heritage as a mean of cultural identity experience for cross-cultural people in a globalised world; that is, how heritage is involved in the process of collective remembering, meaning making, and construction of identity for global nomads citizens.

This blog is part of the public outreaches of my post-doc research project CROSSCULT. The cultural heritage of cross-cultural people. Understanding cultural heritage in a globalized world (2015-2017). This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, under the Marie SkÅ‚odowska-Curie grant agreement No. 658760.
