Kathinka holds a Ph.D. in sociology from Nord University, Norway and a master’s degree in human rights and humanitarian action from SciencesPo, France. She has been a visiting research fellow at the Centre for Gender and Disaster at University College London (UCL).

Kathinka is interested in the knowledge production in relation to migration, gender, aid, and climate change, as well as the politics that shape how these issues are understood and how they intersect. In her work, Kathinka is inspired by political ecology, critical development studies, feminist and postcolonial studies. Geographically, her focus mainly on Bangladesh and Norway.

Currently, Kathinka is partaking in an international research project exploring how climate change adaptation programs interact with gendered processes of dispossession in coastal areas in Bangladesh, Ghana and the Philippines.
