Daniel Côté / IRSST, U. Montréal, Canada

Daniel Côté is a researcher in occupational rehabilitation at the IRSST and an associate professor in the Department of Anthropology at Université de Montréal, where he obtained his PhD in 2007 after conducting ethnographic research in the Indian Himalayas. Over the past few years, he has forged numerous collaborative links with researchers, both nationally and internationally, as well as with numerous clinical partners working in the public and community sectors. His research program focuses on workers in vulnerable situations and more specifically on the rehabilitation trajectories of immigrant workers and on issues related to intercultural communication in the intervention sector. He is also interested in social inequalities in health, the precariousness of work and the phenomenon of stigmatization, taking a critical and systemic approach to individual experiences. He is a member of the SHERPA University Institute and a researcher with the Laboratory for Research on Intercultural Relations (LABRRI) at Université de Montréal.
