Biography

Dr. Clara Della Croce’s areas of expertise are international migration law, refugee and immigration law, human rights law, European law and development law.

She holds an LLB from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (Brazil), an LLM from the University of Hull, a PhD from the University of Southampton and a Graduate Diploma in Law from Oxford Brookes University. Clara joined SOAS after working for the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and the Organization of American States (OAS) dealing with legal technical assistance on trade in services within the framework of the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). She also spent time at the European Commission in Brussels working on aspects of EU external relations and previously worked in Brazil and the UK as a commercial and shipping lawyer.

For more than a decade Clara has also worked at an Oxford-based charity supporting migrants, refugees and foreign national prisoners. Clara’s current work focuses on the intersection between theoretical and practical issues relating to asylum, immigration, and human rights. She is a Knowledge Exchange Fellow at the School of Law at Oxford Brookes University.
