After an award-winning dissertation in 2013 that became the great book ‘Making Gender Equality Happen: Knowledge, Change and Resistance in Gender Mainstreaming’, Rosalind started the precarious existence of postdoc life with a Marie Curie post doc in Nijmegen. She has since balanced earning a living based largely on consultancy with independent, cutting edge research on the politics of knowledge, economic governance and gender, and feminist political economy.
Next to a stint teaching at Tampere University Finland, she also advised the Scottish Government and the European Institute for Gender Equality. She is a Trustee of the Scottish Women’s Budget Group (one of the best in Europe) where she’s focused on Just, Green Transitions. She is an excellent speaker, and dedicated activist within the academic community to carve out more space for anti-racist feminist engagement.
