Information Publications

I work part-time at the University of Eastern Finland in teaching and research in social pedagogy.
My research focuses on citizenship, citizenship education, children’s and young people’s participation, young children’s experiences of loneliness, and the potential of social pedagogical work in various contexts such as early childhood education, schools, and nonformal adult education.
I am also interested in the history and theoretical foundations of social pedagogy.
In addition to my university duties, I serve as the Chair of the Finnish Society for Social Pedagogy and as the Managing Editor of the Journal of Social Pedagogy (Sosiaalipedagogiikka).
