Robine Horckmans

I obtained my Master's degree in Sociology at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (2022). My master thesis consisted of qualitative research on the second-hand clothing market in Brussels. In 2022, I started as an academic assistant and PhD-student. I assisted and taught courses on qualitative research methods and methodology. Since November 2023, I am a FWO PhD fellow working on middle-class sustainability politics.
