Eva is a Post Doctoral Researcher for the 'War and Fun: Reconceptualizing Warfare and Its Experience' research project funded by the European Research Council.

Her research focuses on different types of intervention including politics of statebuilding, electoral assistance and humanitarian aid.

Fieldwork stays in the past brought her to Conakry (Guinea), Abidjan (Côte d’Ivoire), Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) and New York (US).

She studied political science at the Philipps-University of Marburg (Germany) and the University of Tehran (Iran) and obtained her PhD from the Bremen International School of Social Sciences. Yet, she combines her training as political scientist with theories and methods from sociology and anthropology.
