Research Interests
As a Professor of Canadian History at Carleton University, I research the past of children’s rights, humanitarian aid, social policy, disability and technology. I coordinate the Canadian Network on Humanitarian History, and support the rescue of archives of development and aid. I also co-coordinate the Carleton University Disability Research Group (CUDRG).
Accessibility
Research and supervisions in the history of social policies and childhood in Canada lead to increasing engagements with the history of accessibility. I am involved in projects about the history of disability and humanitarian aid, refugees, Quebec education, gender and technology in the Global South, and Public History. I am also a member of the advisory group of Disability Studies at Carleton University.
