Due to a number of social, political and economic factors, vulnerable and marginalized populations have inequitable access to the resources needed to address health risks, resulting in poorer health outcomes as compared to the general population. Approximately one-third of researchers in the Faculty of Health work with vulnerable and marginalized populations, focusing areas such as, but not limited to:

• Resilience;
• Indigenous and Aboriginal populations,
• Neonates through to the aging population, from the homeless, to those with disabilities.

Researchers in this area collaborate with:

•  NGOs,
• Government
• Health Authorities - including the NSHA and IWK
  
• Researchers in other Faculties at Dalhousie, and at Universities across Canada and internationally.

Researchers working in this area include:

• Centre for Transformative Nursing and Health Research
