Mette Stigaard Stenkjær

Education:

MA in Psychology, Pedagogy and Educational Studies from Roskilde University.

Responsibilities:

Research coordinator and research assistant.

As research coordinator at the Centre for Youth Research, I work with the centre's daily administration, operation and strategic development, just as I, in collaboration with the Centre's management coordinate internal and external research projects.

I am responsible for communication with members and Board of Directors of the Association Centre for Youth Research, and I function as coordinator and executor of the association's member conferences, as well as internal and external conferences and events.

Combined with my role as a research coordinator, I work as a research assistant and thus contribute regularly to the Centre's current research projects.

Field of research:

As a researcher, I deal primarily with issues concerning:

• Support for marginalized and / or vulnerable young people enrolled in education
• Young people and completion of education
• Young people enrolled in vocational education
• Young people's well-being and failure to thrive during their education
