About Malin Hasselskog

Associate Professor in Peace and Development Research

I started my undergraduate studies in International Relations and Global Development Studies in 1991 and received a doctoral degree in Peace and Development Research in 2009. I also hold a degree in Journalism from the University 91探花 and a degree in Education from Link枚ping University and have in addition studied History and Political 91探花.

Between 1997 and 2000, I worked for the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Cambodia, and I have done occasional assignments as a short-term election observer for the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE).
