]]> Catherine Mutune /research/tubman/profile/catherine-mutune/ Sun, 14 Nov 2021 03:18:24 +0000 /tubmandev/?p=1213 Catherine Mutune is a second-year master鈥檚 student in Interdisciplinary Studies. Her SSHRC-funded research project investigates the lived experiences of recent East African immigrant women who came to Canada under the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWK) and the challenges they encounter socially, economically, and politically. Her research work is inspired by her experiences as an African immigrant woman negotiating two different cultures and struggling to belong. By incorporating, analyzing, and archiving stories from other East African women, her research study aims to create positive change by interrogating the implicit contradiction of the Federal Skilled Worker Program and generating conversations that will inspire and encourage more research to focus on the subjective dimensions of integration of East African Women as economic immigrants in Canada.
