Anna Tagliabue is currently a Ph.D. Student in "Human rights: evolution, protection, and limits" at Università Degli Studi di Palermo, Italy.

Her research interests include migrations, Critical Border Studies, theories of citizenship, categorization processes, intersectional theories, and the relation(s) between crisis and democracy.

It is through her volunteering activities in the airport transit zone (waiting areas) in France, that she realized the necessity of starting from reality and observing concrete places and people who have experienced it.
