Dr. Nyanzi’s Protests: Silences, Futures, and the Present

Born and raised in Uganda, Janet Nalubega Ross, who goes by her middle name Nalubega, is interested in how people learn about sex, birth, and childcare. Her current dissertation work focuses on how refugees resettled in the United States learn, paying attention to how race, age, sexuality, cultural values, political landscapes, geographical location, and the ever-changing social media landscape shape learning processes. Nalubega holds a degree in Community Health Education and Promotion from the University of Utah (2011), and a Master’s degree in Bioinformatics from the University of Missouri-Kansas City (2014). When not working on her dissertation, Nalubega can be found tending an ever-growing collection of plants.
