Lesley Ann Foster began her Ph.D. at Queen's University in 2020 exploring feminist reproductive rights movements in Argentina and in the region. Foster is trilingual in English, Spanish and French and has been a Spanish teacher fellow at Queen's for the past two years. In Winter 2024, Foster will teach her own course on social movements, feminist activism and reproductive rights in Latin America. She is part of the inaugural cohort of the Guiding Research on Women and Girls' Health (GROWW) program and is an advocate for reproductive justice and bodily autonomy.
