Biography

Dr. Cassandra Hanrahan is an Associate Professor in the School of Social Work, 新加坡六合彩开奖直播. Her PhD in sociology and equity studies and master鈥檚 in social work combine to form a strong basis in social justice for both her scholarship and teaching philosophy. She teaches courses from a trans-disciplinary perspective in the core areas of theoretical foundations and social policy in the BSW and MSW, campus and distance education programs. Her primary interest is in the inter-relatedness of human, other animal, and environmental health and welfare, and the dynamic relationships between all three that affirm our kinship and remind us of our place in the web of life. A related interest in spirituality is aimed at fostering an active awareness of our interconnections as the foundation of human compassion for all living beings, and as a pathway toward sustainable health practices and ecological stewardship.

Prior to her appointment at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播, Dr. Hanrahan was an independent visual arts curator and programmer for film and media arts festivals for equity-seeking groups; a focus that developed out of her dissertation on the role of visual narrative production and reception in relation to empowerment and resilience. Through conference presentations, popular and academic publications, and experience creating original film and media arts programs for community groups, she has substantive experience in knowledge translation. Her curatorial work, combining her knowledge of critical social theories with community capacity building, includes Rendezvous with Madness, Canada鈥檚 leading mental health film festival at Toronto鈥檚 Centre for Addictions and Mental Health; a cornerstone of which was the facilitation of post-screening Q&As and symposiums with mental health service providers, consumers, advocates and the general public.
