Notes
Community organization:
-
Ribbon Rouge
-
Edmonton Community Foundation
Key findings:
-
Alberta’s interactive heath data portal does not have much information broken down by race.
-
Diversity in the Black community is often not captured in stats (e.g. ethnicity, immigration status), which results in ineffective ‘one-size-fits-all’ interventions.
-
In Year 3 of BEAR, the knowledge synthesis phase will begin, which will lead to reports being generated and the launch of the social innovation lab. This phase looks to build solutions from the ground up, driven by the people most impacted by the information gathered.
Key populations: Black people living in Edmonton
Key recommendations: n/a- will be developed in Year 3 of BEAR (the knowledge synthesis phase)
Future research / gaps identified: n/a
Integration timeline: not defined
