Our research is interested in the transition to nationhood in Timor-Leste, from the transition as a Portuguese colony to an Indonesian-occupied territory, and through to the independent republic that Timor-Leste is today. In particular, our research projects tend to focus on the intersecting themes of Gender, Conflict and Peace, Nation Building and Community in the independence era.

On the following thematic pages, you can find information about our approach to each theme, our specific projects both past and present, and our publications. Some of our research extends beyond the scope of specific projects. Where this is the case, publications have been listed on the appropriate thematic pages.
