Description

A collaboratively developed infographic is a Knowledge Mobilization Project that ties back to the women we engaged with and their communities. The infographic summarizes recommendations provided by women from our intersectionality-framed narrative inquiry study that aimed to gather stories on how forced migration status, gender, and racism intersected to shape access to settlement and health services. The infographic has been translated into four languages jointly decided upon with our community advisory team member belonging to the following settlement and health organizations: DIVERSEcity Community Resources Society, Impact North Shore, Options BC, MOSAIC, Burnaby New Canadian Clinic (Fraser Health Authority), Chimo Community Services, and Umbrella Multicultural Health Co-op. The study and project were funded by: SSHRC, Michael Smith Health Research British Columbia, and the University of British Columbia School of Nursing Lyle Creelman Endowment Fund. Non-UBC Affiliations: DIVERSEcity Community Resources Society, Impact North Shore, Options BC, MOSAIC, Burnaby New Canadian Clinic (Fraser Health Authority), Chimo Community Services, Surrey Local Immigration Partnership, and Umbrella Multicultural Health Co-op.
