Jule Beck

I am a PhD Candidate at the Graduate School of Decision sciences at the University of Konstanz. Previously, I completed the two-year MA program Politics and Public Administration with a specialization in 'International Relations and European Integration' and 'Methods of Politics and Public Administration' at the University of Konstanz.

My research interests include, in broad terms, food security, sustainable livelihoods and rural development.
