Listen "Animating the homelessness crisis in Nova Scotia"
Episode Synopsis
Researchers with Dalhousie University's School of Social Work has been looking at the homelessness issue for years. And with the arrival of the global pandemic, they wanted to find out how that impacted those people who were already in a vulnerable situation. A paper on the subject looking into the issue affecting people in Halifax and Cape Breton Municipality was released last fall. And this week, a video animation about that research was completed and posted. Doctor Jeff Karabanow is the associate director of the program at Dalhousie. And he was also involved in co-authoring the paper, and narrating the new animated short. He's hoping it helps spread the message about ways to address isolation, mental health, and affordable housing.
