Carina Listerborn
Professor in Urban Planning
Director at the Institute for Urban Research (IUR)
I am a Professor in Urban Planning and Director of the Institute for Urban Research. I completed my PhD in 2002 at Chalmers University on discourses of urban safety planning from a feminist perspective and has since then been researching urban development strategies (including smart cities), the uses of public spaces from an intersectional perspective, housing inequalities, precarious housing conditions and the digitalisation of the housing market. I have been working full time at Malmö University since 2008 and have been engaged in establishing urban studies as a field of research and education through Bachelor-, Master- and PhD level. Before that I have been working at Human Geography Departments in Stockholm and Lund, as well as Gender Studies at Lund and Malmö.
