Pier-Luc holds an Honorary Research Associate position at the University of Bristol, where he has worked on large funded projects examining justice from the perspective of migrants and minorities (Horizon 2020 project ETHOS, 2017-2019), policy approaches to cultural diversity (HERA project PLURISPACE, 2020-2022), and the drivers of ethnic segregation and mixing (ESRC project Shared Spaces, 2022-2023). His doctoral research, conducted at the University of Valencia Human Rights Institute and supported by a four-year FPU scholarship from the Spanish Ministry of Education, examined the interplay between internationally recognised equality rights, public policies and racism in the European context.
