Professor Robyn Martin

Associate Dean Social Work and Human Services, RMIT University

Professor Robyn Martin commenced Social Work practice in 1990 and is the Associate Dean for Social Work and Human Services at RMIT University. Since that time, she has practised, taught, and researched in trauma, violence, abuse, homelessness and critical mental health. Robyn is particularly interested in creating the conditions for the meaningful involvement of service users and their supporters in service delivery, research, and teaching. She has co-led university-based projects which bring lived experience educators into the academy and in turn, influence future health and human service graduates to value lived experience. Robyn is a critical social work academic, and her research and teaching is informed by post-structuralist, feminist and intersectional theories and concepts.
