Dr. Georgia Dimitriou

I am Georgia, a Teach@Tübingen Fellow at the University of Tübingen. I hold a Master’s in Philosophy and a PhD in Government and International Relations from Durham University, where I was an A.G. Leventis Scholar in the School of Government and International Affairs. My doctoral research examined the intersection between vulnerability, austerity and refugee resettlement, focusing on the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme in the North East of England. I am now in the process of adapting this research into a monograph, as well as looking at ways I can offer fresh insight into the practice of resettlement contributing to the support and improvement of the everyday living experiences of refugee communities.

Previously, I was also a tutor of Politics and Social Sciences at Durham International Study Centre, where I coordinated and delivered Contemporary Issues in Politics and International Relations, Human Culture and Diversity, Research Methods for Social Science, Extended Research and Critical Reading and Applied Academic Writing Skills.
