Join the maxSIMhealth webinar on intersectionality and knowledge translation – March 30

The university’s invites faculty and staff to attend the lecture, .

About the event:

An intersectional approach to health research recognizes that health is shaped and influenced by a multitude of overlapping factors such as race, class, income, education, age, sexuality, and ability. The benefit of adopting this approach to health research is that it provides an understanding of the issues that are closer to the lived experiences of marginalized populations. 

In this lecture, Kathleen Gamble, Research Co-Ordinator, St. Michael's Hospital (Unity Health), will share current examples of how intersectionality can effectively be implemented into the research practice using an Integrated Knowledge Translation (iKT) approach. She will then discuss why the relationship between intersectionality and KT is important to consider when designing research projects.
