He earned a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from the University of Bologna and subsequently a master’s degree in Sociology and Social Research from the University of Turin, with a thesis titled Vite in Galleria: osservazione partecipante con le persone senza casa di Torino<\/em> (Lives in the Gallery: participant observation with homeless people in Turin). The work explored the re-signification of urban public spaces by homeless individuals. <\/p>

His current research interests focus on the ecological transition, with an emphasis on the tensions between economic and environmental sustainability in the photovoltaic panel supply chain, particularly regarding the illicit trafficking of decommissioned panels from the Global North to the Global South.<\/p>

He is also interested in the study of social research methods, with a particular focus on qualitative approaches and data collection techniques, including in-depth interviews, participant observation, and focus groups.<\/p>

He is currently a PhD student at the Department of Social and Economic Sciences (DISSE), in the Sociology & Applied Social Research<\/em> curriculum at Sapienza University of Rome.<\/p>

At IRPPS, he is part of the project Illicit Labour: Unveiling the Dark Sides of the Global Photovoltaic Industry<\/em>, under the supervision of Carlo Inverardi-Ferri. The research group analyzes the socio-economic, political, and environmental dynamics, as well as the illicit economies emerging in the various stages of the solar panel value chain, from resource extraction to production, marketing, and waste disposal. <\/p>

His doctoral project focuses on the routes of solar waste traveling from Europe to Africa, using Ghana as a case study.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
