Emina Bužinkić

Emina writes, facilitates, explores, organizes, agitates and walks barefoot at the intersections of migration, education, and globalization.  She engages with anti-militaristic, anti-capitalist, and anti-racist political praxes. Her work is inspired by migrants’ everyday struggle for freedom and epistemes emerging from transnational and decolonial feminism, critical border activism, and collective knowledge production.  She is a member of AGITATE! Unsettling knowledges Editorial Collective, Transbalkan Solidarity, and Transbalkan Tribunal for Justice Initiative. 

Her work revolves around the critical understanding of and resistance to border regimes while agitating for freedom of movement. She is committed to border-crossing and border-erasure while co-building coalitions transnationally. Her soul is nourished in creative resistance to evil and by the energies of the oceans and dance.

Emina earned her doctorate in education, human rights and gender, women and sexuality studies at the University of Minnesota in the United States. Currently, she works as a postdoctoral fellow with the Institute for Development and International Relations in Croatia.
