Research
Moa Dahlberg's research focuses on development studies with two research interests: 1) the study of hybrid governance of natural resource management in low-income countries and, 2) migration and the gendered nature of violence.
In her PhD, Moa Dahlberg focused on how the state's ability to establish and enforce collective rules in areas of limited statehood is influenced by their interactions with local authorities. More specifically she studied how hybrid governance arrangements with traditional authorities influence the state's capacity to govern. The empirical focus was National Park governance in Southern Africa and the research relied on extensive qualitative fieldwork and surveys collected in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique.
Moa Dahlberg also has an ongoing research project together with Charlotta Söderberg and Simon Matti called Managing a Moving Resource: Opportunities for, and Obstacles to, Collective Action in Swedish Wild Boar Management.
