Claudia Bagge-Petersen researches the life worlds of children and young people. She is moving within the field of Science and Technology Studies and is especially preoccupied with the interplay between children, knowledge, and technology. More specifically the focus is on this group’s relationship with chronic illness and digital health technologies. Among other things, her research has made explicit the structures and practices in digital health innovation that prevents the attuning of digital designs to the ways in which chronically ill children and young people live with and manage their illness.

Claudia’s latest research is concerned with the positioning of children and young people in a time of climate change. Here she explores the methods and possibilities for supporting the knowledge production, agency, and visions of children and young people regarding the local impacts and greater global connections of climate change that affects them and threatens their future.
