Dr. Nancy Worth is a feminist economic geographer who examines the future of work through the lens of social difference, the lived experience of the economic. Using feminist theory and qualitative methods, her scholarship engages with relationality, precarity and futurity to understand how workers negotiate a changing labour market. Her research spans school-to-work transitions with disabled young people, gendered precarious employment, invisible labour in knowledge work, and work-from-home freelancing in Toronto's media sector. Her current SSHRC-funded project investigates study-work-housing dynamics among international graduate students and their families.
