I am PhD candidate in the Faculty of Education, School of Kinesiology. My doctoral research focuses on migrant women living with HIV’s experiences accessing and engaging the healthcare system. I am particularly interested in understanding how healthcare delivery is shaped by the wider sociopolitical context in order to understand how institutions, power relations, and systems of oppression shape migrant women living with HIV’s everyday engagement with and access to health services. More broadly, I am interested in examining the ways that health practices and concepts of health and well-being can be connected to race, gender, and other aspects of one’s social location intersecting with migration, and particularly forced migration.
