Early life
Ulrike Ernst Auga was born in East-Berlin in 1964 during the Cold War when Germany was divided into East and West by the Berlin Wall.

During her childhood, she moved with her parents to the Northern region of East-Germany where she spent her youth. She developed a connection to Northern Germany's contextual history by learning the local Low-German dialect protected by the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages. Low German finds no single modern literary standard, yet is the spoken language of the lowlands of northern Germany. It is a unique dialect that developed from Old Saxon and Middle Low German speech mainly by citizens of the Hanseatic League which is a local guild. This language supplied the Scandinavian languages with many loanwords. The young Ulrike became fluent in this German dialect in which she still speaks and preaches.

Activism and early studies
Coming from a Protestant family, Auga took a dissenting position towards the German Democratic Republic (GDR) (1949-1990). As a consequence of her stance, she was initially banned from studying at state universities and underwent professional agricultural training. As a result, she decided to study Protestant theology at a church college because their social, political and theological orientation appealed to her as she recognized it as a place of resistance to the GDR. At this church college, she studied theology and took a language course in Berlin. She became involved in the Liberation Theology movement and eventually took part in postcolonial projects, and, ultimately, was active in the Peaceful Revolution in 1989 which resulted in East Germany’s reunification with West Germany.

Her mother, Ursula Ernst, née König, was the first freely elected mayor in their community after the Peaceful Revolution which liberated East Germany.

From 1991-92, she continued her studies in Theology, Religion and Philosophy at the Faculty of Divinity at the Federation of Theological Colleges at Cambridge University in the United Kingdom. She graduated with the degree of Magistra in Protestant Theology from Humboldt University of Berlin (HU Berlin). Her thesis was titled: “The Image of the Church in the III Vision and the IX Parable of the Shepherd of Hermas" (Graded: 1.0/A). From 1994-97, she participated in the international Women’s Leadership Training Programme at the Lutheran World Federation (LWF) in Geneva, Switzerland, and served as its youth delegate at the church in Pomerania.

Early career
Ulrike E. Auga studied theology, religion and philosophy in Berlin, Cambridge (UK) and Geneva This was followed by several years of international research fellowship projects:

 * ·       2001-02 - "Gender, Culture, Islam and Indigenous Religion in West Africa" in Bamako, Mali,
 * ·       2002-04 - "Gender in Conflicts" and "Jerusalem Berlin Forum. Divided Cities in Transition" in Jerusalem.
 * ·       2005 - she was awarded a summa cum laude doctorate in Cultural Studies from Humboldt University in Berlin. Her thesis was titled:  “Dissidence and Legitimation - A Critique of Intellectuals and National Cultural Discourses in the Context of South Africa's Transition.”

Current career
From 2008-16, Auga taught as an Assistant Professor for Religious and Gender Studies at Humboldt-Universität in Berlin and completed the habilitation-equivalent achievements in this field. She participated as a co-applicant in the German Research Foundation (DFG) Research Training Group "Gender as a Category of Knowledge", at the same university from 2009-13. She also served as a member of the senate at Humboldt University.

In 2012-15, she was named a member of the research project "Postcolonial, Post-Secular and Queer Research on Gender and Religion" at the Netherlands Scientific Research Foundation. For the period 2013-2014, Auga received the Bonhoeffer Foundation Award and taught as a visiting professor at Columbia University, New York, USA.

In 2015-16, she received a Templeton Foundation and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Research Award and conducted research on the project "Social Implications of Extraterrestrial Life. Gender, Race, Religion, and Visuality in Space Images" at CTI Princeton.

In 2016-17, she won the Humboldt-Princeton Strategic Partnership Award in Gender and Sexuality Studies with Regina Kunzel of Princeton University. The title of their project was "Gender, Sexuality, Race, Class, and Religion in Political Transitions in Europe and the USA." During the same period, she was appointed to a Visiting Professorship in Gender, Diversity and Cultural Studies at Humboldt University in Berlin.

In 2017, during the summer semester, she was awarded the Käthe Leichter Award Visiting Professorship in Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Vienna, Austria.

In 2019, she conducted research as the Mary Douglas Visiting Professor at the Institut de sciences sociales des religions (ISSR) at the Faculté de théologie et de sciences des religions at the Université de Lausanne, Switzerland.

In 2022 she achieved the traditional Habilitation degree resulting in receiving the Venia legendi.

She is the president of the International Association for the Study of Religion and Gender (IARG) and co-editor of the “Routledge Critical Studies in Religion, Gender and Sexuality” series, the series “African Connections in Postcolonial Theory and Literatures” as well as of the peer reviewed Journal “Religion & Gender”.

Auga works as the American Academy of Religion/Society of Biblical Literature’s (AAR/SBL) co-chair of the International Section of the Women’s Caucus. She serves as academic reviewer for the German Research Foundation (DFG), Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and several academic journals.

Auga is also a professor at the Sinclètica Monastic College in Barcelona, Spain, founded by Sr. Dr. Teresa Forcades e Vila (Montserrat).

Scientific and epistemic work and research interests
In 2012, Auga created the category of “Religion as Intersectional” and defined it as a “Discursive, Intersectional Performative Category” (DIP) at the intersection of ‘Gender’, ‘Culture’, ‘Nation’, ‘Class’, ‘Race’, ‘Ability’, and ‘Species’. In her book, An Epistemology of Religion and Gender: Biopolitics – Performativity – Agency (London & New York: Routledge 2020), In 2015, she elaborated on the idea of “Religion as Situated Knowledge”, creating another category which gave its name of the International Research Training Group (IRTG), ultimately entitled: “Transformative Religion: Religion as Situated Knowledge in Processes of Social Knowledge Production” at Humboldt University in Berlin.

Auga evolved her discourse analysis further as “Extended Epistemological Analysis” (EEA) that has become a practical tool for the analytic critique of ‘religion’ in a globalized, diverse context that functions in religion and other belief systems by aiding in its understanding for both faith-based and non-faith-based communities within the post-secular society.

Her academic interests include: postcolonialism, post-secularism, gender and queer studies, posthuman epistemology, ethics and religion; transition processes in gender and religion; religion and visual culture, religions in general, the space age and artificial intelligence (AI). Her current priority interest is in the study of global culture, religion, and super-diversity in political transformation processes in the 20th and 21st Centuries primarily in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and East Asia.
