Dr. Tania Pearce is a Lecturer in Health and Community Services in the School of Health, Faculty of Medicine and Health, at the University of New England, Armidale, NSW, Australia. She earned her Doctor of Philosophy in 2022 from the University of New England, focusing her doctoral research on program evaluation and the application of co-creation and co-design methodologies to build research capacity within non-government organizations. Her earlier qualifications include a Master of Social Work from the University of New England in 2014, a Graduate Diploma in Information Management from the University of New South Wales in 1991, and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of New England in 1990. With more than 20 years of professional experience in health information research, Dr. Pearce has contributed to multiple projects centered on suicide prevention and program evaluation. She currently supervises PhD, MPhil, and Honours students on topics including peer worker supervision and leadership in mental health and suicide prevention, research approaches to self-disclosure and sexual assault, and employs expertise in systematic and scoping reviews alongside mixed methods and qualitative research designs.
Dr. Pearce's primary research areas encompass co-creation, suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention, as well as social work practices. She teaches across undergraduate and postgraduate levels in the UNE Community Services and Social Work programs, delivering units such as Case Management in Community Services (HDCW213), Foundations for Mental Health Practice (HLTH310/510), Capstone Project (HLTH305/405), and Capstone Project for Master of Social Work students (HLTH554A). Her scholarly contributions include highly cited publications such as 'Is exposure to suicide beyond kin associated with risk for suicidal behavior? A systematic review of the evidence' (2017, Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior), 'What is the co-creation of new knowledge? A content analysis and proposed definition for health interventions' (2020, International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health), 'The role of social work in suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention: A scoping review' (2017, Australian Social Work), 'A mixed-methods systematic review of suicide prevention interventions involving multisectoral collaborations' (2022, Health Research Policy and Systems), and 'Co-creation of new knowledge: Good fortune or good management?' (2022, Research Involvement and Engagement). These works underscore her influence in advancing evidence-based approaches to mental health, suicide-related research, and collaborative health interventions.
