Digital Health Literacy for Refugees

29/11/2024 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm AEDT

You are invited to participate in a Research webinar led by Bhuva Narayan delivered via ALIA
Multicultural.

Explanation: This is an extension of Health NSW (Multicultural Health Services) project on Digital
Health Literacy for Refugees. There is some information about the original project here:
https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/multicultural/Documents/digital-health-literacy-poster.pdf

My project, funded also by NSW Health, is looking at public libraries’ role in multicultural and
multilingual services for refugees and asylum seekers. Some points to note:
1. I have ethical clearance for the workshop, and I will be asking participants to send the
attached form back to me or to agree verbally during the workshop.
2. The workshop will be recorded for purposes of transcription but will not be disseminated
anywhere. A Zoom link will be sent out prior to the workshop.
3. All data collected will be anonymised and de-identified
4. This is a third in a series of workshops: the first was with refugees and bilingual translators
(conducted in person at the Fairfield Library where some of the librarians participated also),
and the second was an in-person workshop with refugee community leaders conducted at
UTS. Both workshops have been so rewarding and have already produced some positive
results for the community, just by sparking conversations and by connecting people.
5. The results of all three workshops will be analysed and published as a report for NSW Health
(Multicultural Services) and also as research articles in journals. ALIA NSW Multicultural
Group will be duly acknowledged in any outputs.
