Speaker: Shreya Parikh (Sciences Po)

Shreya Parikh is an affiliated doctor at CERI. At Sciences Po's Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA) and Collège universitaire, she teaches courses on race, migration, minoritization, and social movements in the Middle East-North Africa (MENA) region. She also serves as a member of the scientific council of the MENA Program.

Shreya Parikh received a Dual Ph.D. in political science from Sciences Po Paris and in sociology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2024. Her dissertation, titled ‘Mirages of Race: Blackness, Racialization, and the Black Movement in Tunisia,’ examines the intersections of race, migration, and citizenship in the production of Blackness in contemporary Tunisia. The dissertation is currently under embargo because of the Tunisian state surveillance and investigation against Shreya as well as Black activists interviewed as a part of the research.
