Currently, she is a postdoctoral fellow of the FMSH ATLAS 2022 Horn of Africa to France program, and she is hosted by IMAF. She will stay in IMAF from October 1 to November 30, 2022, for a period of two months. At the center of “Bodies, gender and subjectivities”, she will do her research project which specifically deals with the “Representation of the Female Body and Sexuality in Ethiopian Literature (Novels)”.
