Danna Galván Hernández

Biography

I am a fourth year PhD student in the Social Psychology Department if the University of Granada.  I was beneficiary of an FPI contract (in the R&D project “Alliance processes in coping with threats to identity and perceived control (ALIADXS)”, REF: PID2019-111549GB-I00) and I am currently beneficiary of an FPU contract. My research is focused in social disadvantaged intergroup dynamics to promote social change. Moreover, my work has been centered in exploring the underlying dynamics of the collaboration (or separation) between feminist and LGBTIQA+ movement in Spain, and have extended it to other contexts (such as Poland, Canada or Germany). I have carried out a research stay in the University of Queensland (Australia; SIGN Group) and the University of Warsaw (Poland; Centre of Research on Prejudice).

I’m interested in the dissemination of academic knowledge to the general population, being one of the co-creators of Psicolobas Association  (@Psicolobas),  a space for social psychology divulgation, having participated in the 3-minute thesis competition at the University of Granada, and other types of smaller dissemination acts.
