Martine Sletten

About

I am a PhD Candidate at The Center for Gender Research, working on an action research project about diversity and inclusion in academia. My data material consists of interviews and fieldwork. I work in the intersection between queer studies and feminist organisation studies.

During 2024-2026 I am involved in KARMA, a NFR-funded project with the aim of creating a research-based mapping tool for diversity. This is aimed at universities and research institutions.

During the fall semester in 2024 I spent 3 months as a guest researcher in Japan, at Ochanomizu University in Tokyo.

During spring 2023 I worked with university leaders understanding and work with diversity. This was in connection to the research project GENDIM - Understanding gender imbalances among university professors: the shaping and reshaping of epistemic living spaces.

Previously I’ve been a research assistant on a pilot project about a micro-phenomenological approach to every mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion, where I conducted a literature review for the project.
