Biography:
Laura Ferrer-Wreder, Ph.D., Associate Professor. Stockholm University, Sweden. I am a developmental psychologist. The research that I conduct integrates the study of human development, culture, and intervention/implementation science. I have particularly focused on understanding youth development and the life conditions of adolescents and children that may be considered to be on the margins in terms of having problems with school, those that have been historically discriminated against, as well as those youth and their families facing challenges and opportunities related to immigration to a new country. I also regularly work with schools and/or community-based organizations to partner with them to build resources to support the children and adolescents that they serve.
