MITCHELL, Claudia, Education, McGill University
Claudia Mitchell's innovative work in participatory visual research with communities, especially addressing HIV and AIDS and gender violence with youth in sub-Saharan Africa has democratized the research process so as to promote social change. Her ground-breaking research over two decades, and her acclaimed prolific publications have also led to the establishment of girlhood studies as a crucial new field of action-oriented academic interrogation, and to the furthering of from-the-ground-up policy-making.
