Biography
Dr Evangelia Prokopiou is a Senior Lecturer in Psychology and lead for the Diversity, Community and Identity research group. Her key area of teaching and research interest focuses on dialogical self theory, the impact of immigration and cultural change on identities, families and communities and on the constructions of diverse, ‘non-normative’ childhoods.
Research Interests
Evangelia is particularly interested in exploring the ways children and young people with multiple cultural affiliations construct and negotiate their identities in culturally diverse settings. This interest has led her to become involved in a number of projects such as the Nuffield Foundation funded project 'Child Language in Schools' (2012-13), Horizons 2020 CHILD-UP project (2019-2022) focusing on the social conditions of migrant children’s integration through social participation, ESRC ‘Children Caring on the Move’ (2019-2022) looking at separated child migrants’ care relationships and caring practices and the Erasmus + ‘Empowering Young Languages Brokers for Inclusion in Diversity’ (2020-2022).
