Research and Educational Coordinator

Prof Janice K Moodley-Marie (PhD) is a psychological practitioner registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa and an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of South Africa. Passionately working in the bioethics space, she is seconded to the College of Human Sciences’ Research Ethics and Integrity Committee (a South African Department of Health registered Research Ethics and Integrity Committee) as their Ethics and Integrity Advisor. She is a founding member and policy adaptor for the College of Human Sciences Academic Integrity Committee, serving as the Deputy Chair. She has also served as a member of the University of South Africa’s Institutional Student Disciplinary Committee.

Prof Moodley-Marie obtained her PhD from the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa. Her research is multidisciplinary and critically orientated and challenges the discursive interactions between psychology, health, gender, racial inequalities, and politics within the global South. She is, therefore, well positioned to serve as an International Representative on the Executive Committee for the International Society of Critical Health Psychology. She has published in Menstrual Health and Vaccine Hesitancy, focusing on the inequalities in gendered access to equitable health resources in the global South. She has presented her work on national and international platforms. She is also a co-author of a textbook on Community Psychology currently used in higher education in South Africa.
