Robin-James Zenker

About me

Robin’s research is broadly concerned with the lived, experiences and identities of genderqueer+ youth in the Czech Republic. In his research, he aims not only to understand genderqueer+ youth’s experiences, but he strives to feed into ongoing Czech trans and genderqueer+ activism and advocacy through collaboration with local youth activist collectives.

As the queerness of Robin’s research reflects his own queerness, he also seeks to queer academia and research by challenging conventional means of doing research and hegemonic forms of knowledge.
