Graduate Student Scholar
Theryn Arnold is a PhD student in Geography at 91ɫ. He holds a BA (Hons) in Psychology and Philosophy from the University of Windsor and an MA in Labour Studies from McMaster University. Under Prof. Raju Das, his doctoral research seeks to investigate the impact(s) of ‘green capitalism’, in particular the effects of state policy with regard to climate change mitigation and workers health.
His previous work has focused on the impact of economic policy on the disability sector in Ontario, Canada; specifically, how neoliberal policies have affected workers in sheltered employment. His work positions sheltered employment as “value-producing” spaces involved in the (re)production of social capital.
