Jacqueline Gahagan, PhD
Jacquie 
 is a Professor of Health Promotion at Dalhousie University. She has been involved in HIV/AIDS advocacy, activism and research for over two decades. Her current funded program of research focuses primarily on the gendered aspects of HIV/Hep C, STIs and sexual/reproductive health outcomes.  Jacquie focuses on policy and programming interventions using sex and gender-based analyses (SGBA+) to address health inequities faced among marginalized populations at high risk for poor health outcomes such as those living with or affected by HIV, HCV or other STBBIs, older LGBTQ+ populations and those involved in sex work.
