Weiguo Zhang

University of Toronto, Canada

Weiguo Zhang is an Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Toronto and affiliated with the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy and the Institute for Life Course and Aging. His earlier work primarily focused on rural China, looking into the relationship between national population and economic policies and individual livelihoods related to marriage, fertility, adoption, gender, and care for older adults. His current recent research investigates the effects of the intersection of gender, ethnicity, and migration status on intra-group dynamics and aging experiences of Chinese Canadians, social responses to COVID-19, and anti-Asian racism in Canada. Dr. Zhang received his Ph.D. in Development Studies at the Institute of Social Studies, The Hague, The Netherlands, in 1998.
