About

My doctoral research seeks to explore how women impacted by forced migration tend to their health within the wider sociopolitical context in order to understand how institutions, power relations, and systems of oppression shape their everyday engagement with and access to health promoting services. Using a critical ethnographic approach, I am particularly interested in understanding how migrant women navigate community-based organizations to support their health. I am also 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.
