Research interests

Margaret Robinson is a bisexual and two-spirit scholar from Eski'kewaq, Nova Scotia, and a member of the Lennox Island First Nation. Her work examines the impact of intersecting oppressions and draws on critical, postcolonial, and queer theories, intersectionality, and third wave feminism.

She has been a community-based researcher since 2009, incorporating participatory, action-based, feminist, and Indigenous research methods. She has led studies on decolonizing research funding in Canada, two-spirit people鈥檚 understanding of mental health, and cannabis use among bisexual women. In 2016 she led a team that developed and validated a measure of microaggressions and microaffirmations experienced by bisexual women. She is currently a Co-Investigator on studies of the regulation of non-medical cannabis (Dr. Sergio Rueda & Elaine Elaine听Hyshka, PI), LGBTQ poverty and health (Dr. Lori Ross, PI), decolonization in Canadian and Taiwanese animation (Shannon Brownlee, PI), and the Atlantic Indigenous Mentorship Network (Dr. Debbie Martin, PI).

She conducted her postdoctoral training at the Centre for Addiction & Mental Health and was previously a Researcher in Residence in Indigenous Health at the Ontario HIV Treatment Network in Toronto.
