Spark Talk: Constructing “mental health research” among (im)migrant communities by Zoha Salam (Mar 24, 2023)
Description: This Spark Talk will discuss considerations of qualitative approaches to “research” involving topics of “mental health” among immigrant communities. Issues of the limitations of ethics boards, Western and colonial ideas of mental health (or illness), the social constructing of (im)migrants, and reflexivity will be explored. The goal of this talk is to re-imagine a world that acknowledges the multifaceted lives of immigrants in Canada through re-storying.
