Hi all! My name is Daria Shvets, I hold my PhD degree in Law from the UPF and currently work as an Adjunct Professor teaching the course ¨International Protection of Human Rights¨ the second year already. My research interests in academia are focused on the legal regime of submarine cables, especially in the Arctic region. Apart from the traditional teaching experience I worked as the UPF team adviser in the most known international law competition ¨Philip Jessup Moot Court¨ for three years in a row where we have achieved brilliant results with the team. Сombining academic experience with working as a Senior lawyer for a well-known Catalan start-up ¨Glovo" and being a mom of a 3 years old child give me a lot of energy and drive for future career developments :)

Hello Everyone!

I am Simona Getova, a PhD candidate and a guest lecturer in the area of feminist political ecology at the Department of Political and Social Sciences at UPF.
I have held many trainings and facilitated a number of workshops in my work and organizing with grassroots movements, civil society initiatives, youth, and policy practitioners, but this semester it would be the first time for me giving guest lectures at UPF. I will hold a couple of seminars on the topic of my research for the course on Global Environmental Governance taught by prof. Christos Zografos.
My teaching/training/facilitating has been evolving over the years, but I have so far relied heavily on popular education methods and interactive approaches. Looking forward to learning more and new approaches and techniques and to doing so in this community!

Hi everyone, I´m Nia and I am a junior lecturer at UPF-BSM in HR related topics. I did my PhD in Valencia, and because of the nature of my grant, I could not give classes during the program, so I was thrown into teaching somewhat abruptly afterwards. I now teach 2 subjects at ESCI-UPF and I am very eager to improve and learn better ways to transmit knowldge, raise students´ interest and energy, and if possible, learn how to spend less time preparing classes.

Looking forward to share experiences with you all!
