Diana G. Pinto

I am a political scientist specializing in transitional justice and social psychology. My academic journey led me through International Relations, Peace and Conflict Research, and Genocide Studies, driven by a deep curiosity about how justice is sought and how individuals reclaim their agency in the aftermath of history’s darkest moments.
In Sweden, my work revolves around nonprofits and civil associations, where I lead the implementation of EU-funded projects focused on education and social improvement. The goal is always practical—creating structures that empower communities to move forward.

Writing is another essential part of my work. Through stories about self-efficacy and resilience, I explore how people go through adversity and shape their narratives.

Beyond my professional life, raising three boys has kept me grounded in the unpredictability of life and the small moments that matter most.
