Project goals
Drawing on feminist intersectionality, socio-ecological, and reproductive justice approaches, this national youth-engaged & participatory digital arts-based research project aims to:
1. document youth perspectives on sexual health and reproductive care and barriers and facilitators to equitable care for diverse youth, particularly underrepresented voices of 2S/ LGBTQIA+ youth, Indigenous, Black and youth of colour; newcomer, immigrant and refugee youth; and youth from smaller urban and rural communities;
2. evaluate how youth experience and interact with different sexual health and reproductive health service provision models and identify gaps in meeting equitable sexual and reproductive health care for diverse youth;
3. create youth-centred products (e.g. visuals, stories, maps, videos) on equitable sexual and reproductive health care with youth for service providers, policy makers, and general public
