Myriam Durocher

Myriam Durocher is a SSHRC funded postdoctoral researcher affiliated with the Department of Anthropology (Health, Care and the Body programme group) at the University of Amsterdam (Netherlands). She is also the co-director of the Carleton University Food and Media Hub. Her research interests revolve around critically addressing the power relationships that are negotiated in Quebec/Canada’s food culture so as to initiate constructive change towards fairer (more just, sustainable, inclusive, less normative) food cultures and food systems. Her current community-engaged research looks at the process of a Quebec food community group, the Regroupement des cuisines collectives du Québec, in developing a framework bill on the right to food.
