Currently, I´m working in a three-year research project about community interpreters. The purpose is to analyse the significance of interpretation for legal security and integration with special focus on the reception of separated children. My previous research is about migration and integration, especially concerning issues of education and fundamental values. My dissertation is about an independent religious school.
