She earned her PhD in History and Computer Science from the University of Bologna, Italy, in 2005. Since then, she has been involved in a variety of international research projects and collaborative partnerships that brought her to travel every continent, developing tools and methods to foster innovation in education; explore the role of storytelling and memories in today’s digital world, and investigate and trial ways of using digital storytelling as a participatory methodology for interdisciplinary research. Over the past five years her research has been focusing on three main strands: applied storytelling on environmental issues; digital storytelling for inclusive education; storytelling, sense of place and cultural values.
