Create resource document to provide information quickly and effectively on prejudice and racism in rural areas in Alberta. Students will find, gather, and report on information from a variety of sources (academic sources and grey literature) and develop a workshop (and related materials) to inform relevant stakeholders about key research findings and considerations on this topic. The document will be used as a resource to assist addressing racism and prejudice by creating awareness and, ultimately, policy change.

Although not limited to the following, students will:

a)            Design workshop materials that focus on creating an awareness of and ways to address the social issue of prejudice and racism (consider target audience to be individuals in rural Alberta communities and in Alberta more generally)

b)            Workshop materials will include key background and contextual information about the social issue.

c)            Workshop materials will provide information on ways to promote (e.g., promising/best practices) equity and inclusion for BIPOC communities in order to address the social issue (e.g., policies, resources, initiatives, programs, strategies, educational materials).

We have a vibrant BIPOC youth council and are asking that the youth co-chairs of this council contribute to developing the workshop.
