Anna Mousouli

I am a sociocultural anthropologist pursuing a joint Ph.D. in Anthropology and an MPH in Behavioral and Community Health Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh. My current research interests focus on refugee studies, commercial sex, notions of the self, gender and sexuality, kinship, and precarious labor. My doctoral dissertation is based on ethnographic fieldwork with Iranian refugees living in Athens, Greece.

I have also recently conducted fieldwork research with Sierra Leonean people in Athens. Earlier research projects focused on Albanian people in Greece and Albania and included contributions to an oral history project that examined narratives of Greek refugees from Asia Minor about major historical events.

I am a native speaker of Greek, and I am fluent in English and French. I have a basic understanding of Albanian and Farsi.
