Trained as a museum curator, I worked for UNESCO in the field of heritage and museum protection. Among my responsibilities, I was the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal MUSEUM International for 15 years, dedicated to bridging research in the museum and heritage field with the development and implementation of national and international public policies. In parallel, I taught and lectured on the intellectual and political history of international heritage and international museum policies at various universities around the world.
Since 2022, I have been fully engaged in university teaching and international research, in the field of Museum Studies at the École du Louvre (France), and in Heritage Studies at CYU-CNRS (HERITAGE.S) and at Central European University, Vienna.
My research and teaching focus on, in Museum Studies, sensitive heritage, provenance research, and international issues; and in Heritage Studies, on the geopolitics and ethics of international cultural conventions, the construction of international heritage representations, and the historiography of Heritage Studies
