About Me: Dr Nancy Worth is a feminist economic geographer at the University of Waterloo, Canada. Her research agenda takes an identities approach to focus on issues of social justice and equity—the lived experience of the economic. From her work with young people on school to work transitions to more recent projects with young adults on precarious work and co-residence with parents, her research centres on how age intersects with other social categories of difference, especially gender, ethnicity and social class, across space at various scales (including the workplace, home and the city)—understanding economic processes through the people who experience them.
