My Card
I am Yamun Sharma, an ethnographer and researcher in anthropology and education. I study the digital divide in education. Alongside my research, I work as an educationist and activist, trying to actually improve the quality and reach of education through my academic reading and writing project for young people, alekhni.com.
Research Experience
An ongoing digital ethnography and netnography of the movement, its communities, and its everyday practices.
An ethnography of liminality within the culture of the 42 Heilbronn Piscine, following newcomers as they migrate into the world of programming and pass through that in-between stage.
Studying tradition and modernity in the festivals of the Indian diaspora in the Czech Republic, using ethnographic methods.
