Post-Doctoral Researcher
Léo Fourn is a postdoctoral researcher in the ERC StG project LIVE-AR. He studied political sciences and Arabic and he holds a PhD in sociology from Aix-Marseille University. His thesis focused on the trajectories of Syrians who participated in the 2011 uprising, before seeking refuge in Lebanon and France. His research is situated at the crossroad between migration studies and social movement studies. Within the LIVE-AR project, he will explore the trajectories of Moroccans, Tunisians, Egyptians and Syrians who migrated after their participation in the 2011 uprisings. His fieldwork will be conducted in France and Germany.
