As part of his research postdoctoral project he conducts a comparative study between two contexts of forced displacement as a consequence of violence and developmental mining endeavours, in both Zambia and Mozambique. Furthermore, he has also been researching the mobilities of people and vehicles between Portugal and Senegal, which has led to his first feature documentary film (YOON, 2021). His work combines text, film, image and sound.
