Dr. Salsabel Almanssori

Intersectional Feminist Scholar and Educator

Dr. Salsabel Almanssori is an Adjunct Assistant Professor and SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow at the Faculty of Education and Department of Interdisciplinary and Critical Studies at the University of Windsor. She employs diverse methodologies to investigate public digital pedagogy related to sexual violence and hijabi girlhood, technology-facilitated violence, and the perspectives of teacher candidates, in-service teachers, administrators, and K-12 students on digital citizenship and violence prevention. Salsabel has published in international peer-reviewed journals including Gender and Education, Pedagogy, Culture, and Society, Journal of Curriculum and Pedagogy, and Teaching and Teacher Education, among others. Her research views social phenomena as deeply intertwined with interlocking systems of domination and centres the resistance and activism practiced by disadvantaged communities and groups of people. Salsabel is co-editing a special issue of the journal Girlhood Studies called The Girl in the Hijab, to be published in December 2023. She is a registered Ontario Certified Teacher and taught middle-school teacher in the Greater Essex County District School Board for eight years prior to transitioning permanently to higher education. Salsabel lives in Ontario, Canada, with her husband and two young children.
