Quantitative experience in analyzing e.g. the UNDOC crime data and involvement in developing and analyzing European wide surveys, e.g. the FRA violence against women survey (2014). Through participation in several research projects through various funding programmes, I have extensive experience in the application and execution of EU-wide multinational research projects.
