Autorenporträt
Ragnhild Lund is Professor of Geography in the Department of Geography, Norwegian University of Science and Technology. Her research focuses on three broad areas: gender and development (livelihoods, body space, activism, rethinking and reproducing gender, gender-based violence); mobility and migration (mobile livelihoods, development-induced displacement, gendered mobility, indigenous people); and social geography (cultural encounters, youths, children, friends, house and home, post-war and post-disaster recovery). She has published extensively in international peer-reviewed journals and books, and has led several large research projects in Asia. Kyoko Kusakabe is Professor of Gender and Development Studies, Department of Development and Sustainability, School of Environment, Resources and Development, Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Thailand.

She has published extensively in international peer-reviewed journals and books.
