Caroline Lenette is Senior Lecturer in the School of Social Sciences, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. She is a member of the UNSW Forced Migration Research Network, an interdisciplinary network of leading researchers in refugee and migration studies. Over the past ten years, Caroline has used arts-based methods in social-justice focused research to collaborate with co-researchers with lived experiences as refugees and asylum seekers, especially women. Together, they explored stories of wellbeing, cultural identity, and settlement through arts-based methodologies. She has published widely on these topics. Caroline’s research interests include understanding how creative outcomes can influence decision-makers towards meaningful social change, and the ethical considerations of collaborative, arts-based research and participatory research more broadly.
