Rosamund Mutton

PhD Student, Lancaster University

Rosie completed both her undergraduate degree in Politics and International Relations, and her MA in Conflict Resolution and Peace Studies at Lancaster University. During her studies, she has undertaken various research internships as part of the Richardson Institute, working with organisations including Radicalisation Research, Moonshot and the Institute for Strategic Dialogue.

Rosie’s research explores the variety of ways in which women can participate in and engage with extremism, analysing the types of roles women perform and the impact these roles have in enabling violent extremism to be enacted by both themselves and other actors within the group.

She is supervised by Professor Kim Knott (Lancaster) and Dr Sarah Marsden (St Andrews).
