Kamilla Zsuzsanna Galicz

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, where I did my PhD in Law. Prior to starting my PhD, I gained professional experience first as a country-of-origin information specialist at the Hungarian Immigration and Asylum Office (now: National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing), then as a trainee lawyer at a prestigious law firm in Budapest with a large Italian- and English-speaking clientele. In addition, I spent a five-month-long research period at the European Training and Research Centre for Human Rights and Democracy (University of Graz) from October 2023 to February 2024. My PhD thesis "Health, Fundamental Rights and the Moving Boundaries of Asylum: An Emerging Dialogue in Europe (?)" aims to identify health issues, framed in terms of fundamental rights, that may be relevant for granting asylum, and in this respect, the role of dialogue among courts and non-judicial monitoring bodies in Europe, based on doctrinal legal research with interdisciplinary insights from medical sciences, psychology and philosophy. My main research interests are: migration, asylum, fundamental rights, citizenship, current challenges to democratic values. I am a marathon runner.
