Project: Mapping mistrust: health-seeking and mobility patterns during infectious disease outbreaks among recently arrived immigrant communities in Montreal.

This project examines how misinformation, mistrust, and social barriers affect how recently arrived South Asian immigrants in Montreal seek care during infectious disease outbreaks. By combining interviews and travel surveys, the team will map how trust influences decisions and movement through the city to access health services. The findings aim to support more equitable, community-informed responses in future health emergencies.
