Inclusive by Design Series: Equity by Design Workshop

Join us for Equity by Design, the first workshop in the Inclusive by Design series, focused on applying the Health Equity Impact Assessment (HEIA) framework in research and academic contexts. This hands-on session will introduce practical strategies for identifying structural barriers, mitigating inequities, and integrating equity principles into study design.

We are excited to welcome Sonia Meerai, Assistant Professor in the School of Social Work at Laurentian University. Sonia is an interdisciplinary scholar whose work explores racial justice, reproductive technologies, algorithmic surveillance, and the impacts of digital health through critical race feminist and decolonial frameworks. She brings deep expertise in applying equity-centered methodologies and has collaborated on HEIA processes across health system projects.

Time: 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM
Location: Earth Sciences Building, Room 4000
