Research

Master’s project: “Mapping Vulnerability, Picturing Place: Women negotiating safety in the post-(im)migration phase.” This project incorporated a variety of research methods including: interviews, questionnaires, focus group/photovoice workshops, and a group exercise that mapped red (danger) and green (safe) zones in cities of residence. The participatory action research project participants also participated in a series of photography exhibitions. The exhibition was entitled: “Emotional Places, Paradoxical Spaces.”
