She is also a Scientific Advisor at the Centre de Santé et des Services Sociaux de la Montagne in Montreal, where she evaluates health and social programs with ethno-culturally diverse families. Her published works focus on children’s rights, protection, and wellbeing cross-culturally; and ethical and methodological issues involved in research with children. She leads mixed-methods studies related to child protection and wellbeing, mainly in contexts of parent-child separation such as children home alone in Canada and children in alternative care in low- and middle-income countries such as Namibia, Laos, and Liberia.
