  • Biography:

    Angel Kennedy is an SFU PhD candidate in the Faculty of Health Sciences at Simon Fraser University, and a Research Manager for the Research for Eco-Social and Equitable Transformation (RESET) Lab. Angel's research often explores connections across One Health, Ecohealth, and Planetary Health frameworks. Her doctoral research directly addresses a prevalent challenge of One Health: understanding how to genuinely value human, animal, and ecosystem realities together. The research investigates integrative convening spaces where these three areas of health are intentionally connected. By concentrating on youth- and early career-led initiatives, the study aims to capture how a new generation is moving beyond disciplinary silos to reimagine integrative approaches to health through practices of connection and relationality.
