A comparison between Borgo Marina, Rimini, and Al Hussein Camp, Amman.” She holds a bachelor's degree with honors in Languages, Cultures and Societies of Asia and Mediterranean Africa from Cà Foscari University of Venice (Arabic and Hebrew, L-11) and a master's degree with honors in Migration Studies from the MIM Master's program, at Université Paul Valéry, Montpellier (LM-81). She developed a master's thesis focused on the geography of Sudanese, Bengali and Filipino migrant communities established within the Al Hussein Palestinian refugee camp in Amman.
