SUMMARY:Co-Designing Integrated and Equitable Supports for Newcomers & Refugees: Lessons Learned on Intersectionality in Action Through Multistakeholder Dialogues
DESCRIPTION:The settlement experiences of newcomers to Canada are influenced by social\, systemic\, and structural factors that can be better understood through an intersectional approach. However\, intersectionality is often considered too theoretical for practical use in settlement services. This webinar will feature insights from the “Beyond Technology\, Beyond Healthcare” project\, focusing on improving equitable service delivery for newcomers.
