As an ethnologist and pedagogue, she has worked for more than 30 years on making difficult-to-resolve conflicts accessible for reflection in (educational) institutions, focusing on peoples’ experiences and their dimensions of experience. The challenge in terms of theory and method, which is posed again and again, is to translate for everyone involved the yet unspeakable into words.
