Using abolitionist politics and by looking at the experiences of Black and Indigenous people as well as people of colour (BIPOC), Arany Sivasubramaniam's research is looking at ways that we can start to dismantle our understanding of health and care to create healthy communities.
As she approached the completion of her master’s, Arany knew that there were more questions to be answered and more work to be done. This persuaded her to continue into her PhD and use this research as the foundation for her doctoral research. Arany will complete all three of her degrees in the department of Recreation and Leisure Studies.
Health care is more than just a career for me. It's my passion. That's why I chose the PhD Aging, Health and Well-being program.
