Ada is the Principal Investigator of the WE-COOP project (ERC StG 2023-28). She is a researcher at the SAGE laboratory (UMR 7363) at the University of Strasbourg. Her research focuses on social critiques of labor and intersectional approaches to power relations at work, exploring workplace utopias and the emancipatory and/or resistance practices of workers, particularly the study of democratic forms of work organization (worker co-operatives, autogestion, feminist utopias at work).

Elodie raduated with a Master’s degree in demography in 2021 and works in social science research and statistical surveys.
Her role in the WE-COOP project is to carry out a survey of women workers in co-operatives, and to analyse and present the results.

With a Master’s degree in Environmental Studies (EHESS), Fanny wrote her research dissertation on a worker-owned cooperative in an ecological ‘third place’, with an ethnographic field study involving participant observation. With a feminist and pragmatic epistemology, she is particularly interested in workplace democracy, practices of care, as well as political and relational ecology.
Her role in the WE-COOP project is to provide support for the qualitative part (phase 2) and the participatory research aspect of the entire survey.

With a Ph.D. in Political and Social Sciences, she mobilizes political anthropology to study community-based life and work projects: their critical aspirations, their democratic and economic functioning, and the power dynamics that shape them, particularly from a gender and social class perspective.
She is involved in phase 2 of the WE-COOP project: meeting with and conducting interviews of volunteer workers, qualitative analysis, and disseminating the results.

With a Ph.D. in Anthropology, her research focuses on gender and work, particularly the gendered division of labor. She is the author of the thesis Aller aux olives: An Anthropology of Gender and Work in Andalusia (2024), and co-author of the book Mazan, anthropologie d’un procès pour viols (2025), based on a collective investigation.
She is involved in phase 2 of the WE-COOP project: meeting with and conducting interviews of volunteer workers, qualitative analysis, and disseminating the results.

After studying political science and information and communication science, Marie defended her PHD on ‘Representations of women living with HIV in the French daily press (1997-2015)’ at the Elico laboratory (Lyon 2) under the supervision of Isabelle Garcin-Marrou in December 2023. Her research topics include gender and representations/imaginaries, with an interest in community health issues.
