معرفی
Dr. Catherine Richardson is an Associate Professor in the School of Social Work at the University of Victoria's Faculty of Human and Social Development. Her academic work is deeply engaged with Indigenous communities and focuses on understanding and addressing violence against youth in Canada.
Her research centers on Indigenous resistance and the theoretical and practical foundations of response-based practice, an approach that emphasizes how individuals actively respond to violence and oppression rather than being defined by victimhood. This framework informs both clinical practice and social justice advocacy.
Dr. Richardson’s work contributes to transformative social work education and practice, particularly in contexts involving trauma, colonialism, and systemic inequality. Her scholarship promotes agency, dignity, and resistance among marginalized populations.
Although no specific publications or scientific awards are listed in the available materials, her research themes suggest strong contributions to the fields of critical social work, decolonizing methodologies, and community-led healing initiatives.
She is actively involved in research and teaching but no information is available regarding student supervision, grants, or formal research teams and laboratories.
