Sarah Marsden is a PhD student in the Faculty of Law. Her studies focus on temporary and undocumented labour migration in Canada and as a global phenomenon, drawing on scholarship in law, sociology, geography, and history. She is interested in documenting the impact of governance and regulatory structures on migrant workers, particularly with regard to rights and membership in the host state.
Sarah obtained her LL.B. and LL.M from the University of Victoria, and subsequently spent time working as a judicial clerk for the Federal Court of Canada, and as an immigration and refugee lawyer in Vancouver. Most recently, she has been involved in starting an immigration and refugee clinic for low-income clients through UBC’s Law Students Legal Advice Program.
