Dr Aryati Yashadhana is an early career researcher whose work focuses on socioeconomic, cultural and political determinants of health, intersectional health equity (gender, race, class), and international development. Her research has largely taken place in collaboration with Aboriginal cultural knowledge holders in Australia (NSW and Northern Territory), with a focus on analysing the cultural dimensions of health and wellbeing. Dr Yashadhana specialises in qualitative and participatory methodologies, with a particular interest in Aboriginal ontologies and decolonising methodologies, the way marginalised peoples and cultures interface with dominant health/social systems and structures, and analysing access to health systems and services.
