Kimberlee Nesbitt

Kimberlee Nesbitt is a PhD student in Political Science at Carleton University. Her research brings together intersections between the feminist moral framework of care ethics, war, and reproduction by focusing on how the Russian Federation’s full-scale invasion is affecting the nature of reproductive care across Ukraine. Through analysis of Ukrainian poetry and wartime diaries, Kim’s work considers how war reshapes social and embodied reproduction, foregrounding experiences of reproductive decision-making under occupation, displacement, and migration. She is the recipient of the Carl Jacobson Peace Prize. Outside of academia, Kim works in the tattoo industry, enjoys punk music, and playing with her cat.
