Details

We are looking for students to support data analysis and presentations on health surveillance of chronic and infectious illnesses currently monitored by Health Canada and Public Health Ontario. Students will be asked to create statistical reports on health surveillance findings from Health Canada based on priority health illnesses and provide recommendations on health initiatives the organization should purse. These statistical findings will be used to advice our health research projects.

Supporting the development of this project will involve:

  • Conduct background research on health surveillance on health illnesses currently monitored by the Government of Canada.
  • Analyzing data and providing recommendations on monitored health conditions to incorporate as furure health projects that promote awareness & health literacy.
  • Presenting health reports to the team.
Deliverables
  • Research, analyze and present monitored health data
  • Complete health training and attend health data team meetings (via google meets)
  • Apply Social Determinants of Health lens to provide recommendations on health projects for the organization to purse based on benefits to identified populations and market need.
  • Maintain a health data surveillance database.
Mentorship

Students will connect directly with the employer for mentorship and supervision throughout the project. Students will also have access to free health training and support through our weekly health data sub-team meeting.

The Racialized Students is a registered non-profit organization. We launched in 2020 during the onset of the pandemic. We were founded to be a resource for Black and racialized students to partake in meaningful research training and networking opportunities that help them advance throughout their academic journey and career journey.

We achieve this through the provision of mentorship, research, and employment training opportunities.

Our mission is to increase the representation of Black people across interdisciplinary Health sectors and increase the rate of employment among Black youth through career advancement training.

We envision a safer and inclusive Toronto where all Torontonians particularly Black and racialized communities can access services and employment free from racism and discrimination.
