Anna-Karin Margareta Andersson

I am an Associate Professor at the Department of Social Education. My current and recent research focuses on the normative and conceptual relationships between the sustainable development goals, human rights, and the capability approach, and the application of this theoretical framework to central challenges of biotechnology and ethics: 1) The interpretation and application of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, particularly regarding the human right to inclusive education. 2) The use of carbon capture and utilization in the production of algae-based fishfeed for the aquaculture industry. This research contributes to context-sensitive implementation of a food-energy-water nexus approach in an Arctic context, aimed at increasing synergies and reducing tradeoffs between the sustainable development goals.
