Miranda Gebhardt supports the Borderstep team as a student research assistant in the field of Sustainable Entrepreneurship. She is currently pursuing an M.Sc. in Sustainable Transition at Justus Liebig University Giessen as well as an M.Sc. in Computational Social Science at Linköping University.

Miranda completed her bachelor’s degree in Philosophy, International and Economic Studies at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. During this time, she developed a strong interest in interdisciplinary research in an international environment. She also attended courses at Venice International University, with a particular focus on global and local sustainability issues.

As part of her studies, Miranda Gebhardt completed a traineeship at the European Parliament, where she gained insights into parliamentary processes. She has also volunteered with the youth organisation Scambi, which organises a cultural festival and promotes exchange among young people.

Another formative experience was her semester abroad at Ateneo de Manila University in the Philippines. This period significantly shaped her perspective on global sustainable development.

In her free time, Miranda enjoys bouldering, cooking elaborate meals, and drawing both digitally and by hand.

In a conversation about data analysis, digitalisation and sustainable entrepreneurship, Miranda explains how data can help make sustainable business ideas and developments more visible.
