Current research and teaching
Research interests concern international cooperation in the broad field of development focusing on governance issues, policy processes and global-local linkages. Current research deal with the United Nations 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) from the perspectives of legitimacy and responsibility at the national level. Other research concern legitimacy in global governance with special focus on the World Health Organisation (WHO).
Teaching evolves around development studies, policy studies, comparative politics in Southeast Asia, and international relations. Kristina Jönsson is coordinator of a university-wide graduate school with a focus on societal challenges and Agenda 2030 (see Agenda 2030 graduate school). In 2012 she was promoted to Excellent Teaching Practitioner.
