About
Clara De Ruysscher (PhD) is researcher at EQUALITY//ResearchCollective and the Recovery & Addiction research group of the Department of Special Needs Education at Ghent University. In general, her research focuses on recovery in persons with complex mental health needs. She studies this through ethnographic and co-creative research methods, driven by the aim to place the lived experiences of persons in recovery at the heart of the evidence created. Her past and current research projects specifically focus on areas such as harm reduction, the implementation of drug consumption rooms, the connection between recovery and (urban) precarity, and community-based mental health care, among other topics in the broad field of recovery research.
