Dr Meg Lee

Meg is a youth wellbeing researcher working across human geography, youth sociology, and anthropology. She is passionate about co-creating meaningful ways of doing research together with young people and communities.  Trust and partnership, participatory research and co-design are central to Meg’s research.

Meg brings critical attention to embodied experiences of racialisation, whiteness, place and mobility, and how these shape young people’s possibilities for being in the world. Her interest in this area is informed by her own lived experiences of racialisation in regional Victoria. Meg’s PhD research explored everyday embodied wellbeing with young people in regional and rural Victoria, using photovoice and ethnographic methods.

Meg brings a unique community-based, in-depth and interdisciplinary approach to her research. Her approach offers new insights into to complex issues around youth and equity, racism and whiteness, and rurality, how these factors can intersect to produce—or transform—youth and community possibilities for being well.
