Applying Critical Theories towards Collective Access in Research and Community Practice

This 90-minute online workshop explores how critical frameworks—specifically queer theory, critical disability theory, and institutional ethnography—can inform and strengthen community research and practice. We consider how these theories challenge dominant models of health and inclusion. We will use short activities to foreground points of alignment with embodied research approaches that center lived experience and relational knowledge. Using a facilitated design-thinking process, we will create a preliminary critical access design or action plan that centres on collective wellbeing in a specific campus or community research setting.

This workshop is part of the Research Excellence Workshop Leader Initiative (REWLI). Learn more and see the full list of offerings.
