Phd Student for the International Institute of Social Studies (ISS) - Erasmus University. I am currently doing a research titled: “Decolonizing past and present: Understanding queer spiritual/religious practices in the contemporary Peruvian Andean society as a political respond to colonial gender binarism”. This a project focused on memory recovery and epistemic justice with the aim at responding to the structural and systematic process of erasure established in Peru since coloniality.
