Michael Neufeld

Michael is a lecturer in the school of Clinical Sciences with a background in Paediatric Emergency and Homecare Nursing. His research interests include the moral and ethical tensions inherent in paediatric practice and young people’s right to ‘have a say’ about the things that affect them.

His Doctoral research called “The Creating Space Project” used Participatory Video and Drama to create the literal and metaphorical space to explore young people’s perceptions of Health and well-being . He believes that using creative narrative processes can amplify young people’s voices in order to inform health policy and provision. Michael is also a member of the international ISUPPORT collaborative that has developed rights based standards for children undergoing tests, treatments examinations and interventions.
