Research
Interdisciplinary research atthe intersection of migration systems, labour market access, institutional inequality, and health 0 with a focus on how regulatory frameworks shape belonging and professional entry.
Dr. Adekola’s research program examines how migration systems, credential recognition frameworks, and institutional structures shape access, equity, and outcomes for internationally educated professionals.
Her work integrates qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods approaches, drawing on interviews, survey data, census data (Statistics Canada), and policy analysis. Current projects include SSHRC-aligned work on professional mobility and a longitudinal initiative on life course outcomes amongBlack and immigrant populations.
