Simon Coulombe is an associate professor in the Department of Industrial Relations at Université Laval. He holds the Chaire de recherche Relief en santé mentale, autogestion et travai. Trained in community psychology (PhD from UQAM obtained in 2016), he conducts research on the promotion of positive well-being and mental health recovery among workers from various marginalized groups, including people living with mental health difficulties and those in precarious employment situations. His work lies at the intersection of industrial relations and several fields of psychology (community, positive, environmental and organizational). He is also interested in the feeling of social contribution and social participation as factors of health and well-being, in addition to working on the development of digital applications useful in social sciences and health promotion. Before joining Laval University, he was an assistant professor in psychology at Wilfrid Laurier University, where he contributed to research on the well-being and inclusion of LGBTQ+ people.
