Autorenporträt
Annelies Kusters is Professor of Sociolinguistics at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, UK. She led the project "Deaf Mobilities Across International Borders: Visualizing Intersectionality and Translanguaging" (MobileDeaf) from 2017 to 2023, funded by a European Research Council Starting Grant. Fueled by her passion for ethnographic research, she has conducted extensive fieldwork across various locations such as Suriname, Ghana, India, the United Kingdom, and numerous international deaf events and workplaces since 2004. Erin Moriarty is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Virginia and an honorary research fellow at Heriot-Watt University. Her research interests include linguistic ethnography, translanguaging, language ideologies, deaf mobilities, the deaf ecosystem, affect and the senses, and moral orientations. Moriarty recently received an award from the NEH to reimagine Deaf Studies for the future and wrapped up a 5-year ethnography on deaf tourism. Amandine le Maire is a PhD candidate at Heriot-Watt University on the topic of the lived experiences of deaf refugees in Kakuma Refugee Camp. She holds a master's degree in Anthropology from Université Catholique de Louvain in Belgium, where she is currently a lecturer. Her research interests encompass the concept of deaf space and the relocation and displacement experiences of deaf people. Previously, she explored family relocations within Belgium, revealing multifaceted motives, including the presence of a bilingual deaf school. Sanchayeeta Iyer is a PhD candidate at Heriot-Watt University, where she is studying the experiences of deaf Indian female migrants in London. Previously, she worked for the Deaf Ethnic Women's Association in London. She holds an MSc in Children, Youth, and International Development from London's Birkbeck College. Her interest in international development has led to volunteer work in the Philippines and to serve as a trustee for an organization that supports deaf people in Burundi and Rwanda. Steven Emery has been working in numerous roles with British Sign Language and international deaf signers for over 30 years. He holds a PhD from the University of Central Lancashire, and soon after started a post-doctorate on minority group rights at the University of Bristol. He has lectured and conducted research at many universities, most notably Heriot-Watt University. His research and publications focus on a deaf diaspora, the ethics of genetic counselling, international deaf protest, and minority group rights. His most recent project is on radical signs.
