Before beginning her doctoral research, Kathrin completed an LLB at the London School of Economics; an MLitt in Legal and Constitutional Studies at the Institute of Legal and Constitutional Research, University of St Andrews; and the Bachelor of Civil Law (BCL) at Oxford. She takes part in the Graduate Residency programme at the Bonavero Institute of Human Rights.
