New intern at ITRC

For the next six months, Rike Nissen will complete an internship at the ITRC. Rike is studying tourism geography at the University of Trier. Currently, she is writing her bachelor's thesis on the topic of „Regenerative tourism between theoretical ideals and practical implementation options: A critical examination of the future perspective in Tourism“ and will be graduating soon. Her research interests include feminist geography, sustainability, geopolitics and island tourism.

During her internship, she will be working on a project relating to cultural tourism in Reykjavík that will e.g., include surveying tourists visiting museums and exhibitions in the city.

Rike will be located at ITRC's office in Reykjavík, and supervised by Vera Vilhjálmsdóttir.

We at the ITRC want to welcome Rike to the centre, and we look forward to working with her in the upcoming months.
