Eva Kane is a Lecturer at the Department of Child and Youth Studies, Stockholm University. She specializes in school-age educare, focusing on play practices, action research, and systematic quality work in childcare settings.
- Teaches courses in School-Age Educare for the Grundlärarprogrammet (After-School Programme).
- Research leader for the project Inventory of children's needs and interests as a basis for systematic quality work in leisure centers (2018-2021), funded by Utbildningsförvaltningen i Stockholms stad.
Her research explores how play practices are conceptualized and facilitated in educational contexts, using frameworks from Deleuze and Guattari and Habermas. Publications analyze tensions between children's agency and institutional constraints, emphasizing transformative potential through 'What If? As If' approaches.
Collaborations include scholars like Anna-Lena Ljusberg, Pat Petrie, and Ann Pihlgren. Current work addresses integrating play into educational policy, while past projects like Integrationsfritids examine language-focused leisure activities.
