Kim Collins is a Research Assistant with two projects: Relaxed Performance Curriculum pilot, which explores RP training across three disciplinary programs at three Ontario universities, and Artistry Under the Table: Disabled Artists’ Livelihoods in Canada, which explores the experiences of disabled, D/deaf and mad artists: how they survive and thrive through their own artistic practices and in relationship to communities of practice in austere times. She is a doctoral student in Social and Behavioural Health Sciences at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto. Her research focuses on emotional and affective responses to climate change, including ecological grief.
