Alumni Talk with Erick Moreno Superlano '22

Join us for an alumni talk with Erick Moreno Superlano, who graduated from the Humanities, the Arts, and Social Thought program with a concentration in Literature and Rhetoric in 2022. 

Erick Moreno Superlano is a PhD student in Migration Studies at the University of Oxford. His interests are at the intersection of cultural anthropology, human geography, and social theory. He was awarded a Clarendon Scholarship for his PhD and holds an MSc in Migration Studies from the University of Oxford, funded by an Oxford Refugee Scholarship and the German Academic Scholarship Foundation.

For his doctoral research, Erick examines the political structures, socio-economic formations, and racial hierarchies that influence the future of immigrants from the Global South in New York. Specifically, he studies working-class Venezuelan immigrants and analyzes the spatial politics shaping their future in the city. His research aims to uncover how immigrants' future-oriented actions and negotiations in the city impact their moral beliefs, political perspectives, and ability to create political opportunities.

Erick also works as a humanitarian consultant for Meraki Labs where he collaborates with a team of consultants from the Global South and provides research and analysis, monitoring and evaluation, and policy development support to NGOs, international agencies, and research institutions.

This event takes place in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Agata Lisiak's course A Lexicon of Migration.
