Biography
In my research, I am driven by an interest in investigating how various forms of support, care and service are practiced and what opportunities and obstacles exist for participation and self-determination. The starting point is that self-determination and participation are not determined by the individual's ability but rather are created or hindered in the interaction between the individual, staff, aids and the environment. In recent years I have conducted several participatory research projects in collaboration with the research, such as research circles and follow-up research projects.
