Between 2018-2023 Tina Magazzini was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Global Governance Programme, Robert Schuman Center for Advanced Studies of the European University Institute, where she co-coordinated the GREASE project with Anna Triandafyllidou. Her research interests are in the fields of comparative politics, migration and integration policies, diversity management, identity politics and the relationship between majorities, minorities and states. She is interested in both applied and theoretical research in these areas and has conducted a wide range of research consultancies for international bodies as well as regular funded research. She carried out her PhD research at the University of Deusto (Bilbao) within the Marie Sklodowska Curie project INTEGRIM – Integration and International Migration: pathways and integration policies. She was awarded the Ryoichi Sasakawa Young Leaders Fellowship in 2016 by the Tokyo Foundation for Policy Research, the Social Impact Award in 2018 by the Marie Curie Alumni Association and a María Zambrano grant for the attraction of international talent by the Spanish government (“NextGenerationEU” funds).

Her publications include articles for the Journal of Intercultural Studies; Religion, State and Society; Policy & Politics; International Migration and edited volumes for IMISCOE Springer and Routledge. A short movie she directed has been used in an anti-xenophobia campaign by the MADE – Migration and Development Civil Society Network, and she has acted as an external expert to the Global Forum for Migration and Development in 2016 and 2017. Previously to joining the EUI she worked with a number of NGOs, the European Commission, the Council of Europe and UNESCO in the areas of social inclusion, Roma integration policy-making and minority rights in Portugal, the United States, Guatemala, Belgium, Hungary, Spain and Zimbabwe.

As a representative of the coordinating partner in the project, Tina has been deeply involved in GREASE’s research activities, particularly those pertaining to the work package on Mapping of State-Religion Relations and Religious Radicalisation Trends.
