    About the Research

    This study explores the lived experiences of 2SLGBTQ+ adults in Canada regarding nutrition, food, and identity through participatory songwriting. By engaging participants in reflective storytelling and collaborative music creation across two group workshops, the study aims to produce original songs that authentically reflect their personal narratives. Ultimately, the research hopes to use these creative outputs to co-create culturally safe and inclusive training modules for dietitians, thereby enhancing dietetic education and improving healthcare experiences for the 2SLGBTQ+ community.

  • Q-SAATHI: Queer South Asian Adolescent Transformative Health Intervention

    Q-SAATHI: Queer South Asian Adolescent Transformative Health Intervention

    The South Asian Health Research Hub (SAHRH) team aims to form a youth collective for a Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR) grant proposal focused on the health and mentorship for South Asian LGBTQ2S+ youth in Canada and the US. The project aims to build a health intervention and intergenerational mentorship program creating space for resilience and leadership among youth navigating both cultural and queer identities. With the rise in mental-health challenges in our communities, we feel this work is both timely and much needed.

  • Trans Patient Union – Vaginoplasty Survey

    Trans Patient Union – Vaginoplasty Survey

    GRS Vaginoplasty Survey

    This survey specifically asks about experiences with Montreal’s GRS clinic. If you had surgery at a clinic other than the GRS, please do not fill out this survey; however, we would be happy to interview you about your experience!

    You are eligible to take this survey if you are at least 3 months post-op.

    Data usage

    Our goal for this survey is to collect data people’s experience at GRS, and to use this information to advocate for better practices at GRS and associated medical organizations. All submissions are kept strictly confidential, but information from your submissions will be used internally by the TPU and may be included in aggregate statistics discussed with GRS and other organizations (e.g. 50% of patients reported being misgendered).
