About Michele




Humboldt Department of Social Work is honored to announce our Alumni of the Year, Michele Eggers, PhD.  Michele earned her BASW from Humboldt in 1992.  Michele is recognized for her work in the field and also as a prior faculty member.

Professor Emeritus, Pam Brown writes –

“Michele's areas of interest, community work and research have been in the areas of:

Politics of reproductive health, rights, and justice
Environmental, Indigenous, and women’s rights
Embodying inequality
Latin America
Globalization
Intersectionality
Critical theory of whiteness
Migration/immigration
Criminalization
Constructions of violence

Michele’s commitment to human rights, her extensive practice as a social worker in schools and treatment programs, and her use of film, photography and writing to move these issues into the light is the reason why we are honoring her for her academic research and creative work in the field.”
 
Congratulation's Michele!
