The RPA Conflict & Society is very happy to announce Eda Kiriscioglu as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Conflict & Society Research Priority Area (RPA) at the University of Amsterdam.
Eda works on the GRIID project (Government Responses to Internal and International Displacement), which examines how states respond to displacement through protective and repressive policies and practices across different levels of governance.
Her research focuses on forced displacement, migration governance, and government responses to mobility, with particular attention to inconsistencies between de jure policies and de facto practices. A central strand of her work examines migration aspirations, risk perceptions, and decision-making under uncertainty among refugee and migrant populations. Methodologically, she works with mixed methods, combining qualitative fieldwork with survey research, experiments, and cross-national data analysis.
Her research has been published in journals such as Journal of Refugee Studies, Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, Journal of Immigrant & Refugee Studies, Disasters, and Open Democracy. She holds a PhD from the University of Amsterdam and has extensive research experience in Turkey and the EU context.
