Sparking conversations about suicide prevention in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community with photovoice

Time: 12-1pm PST

In this webinar, participants will be introduced to an innovative research and KT method involving visual imagery and narrative, which has been used to spark community dialogues on suicide prevention. Drawing on an example from Dr. Ferlatte's own research on suicide among LGBTQ2S people, this webinar highlights key considerations for researchers who want to effectively incorporate novel KT approaches into their work.

Dr. Olivier Ferlatte is a post-doctoral research fellow with the men’s health research program at the School of Nursing at the University of British Columbia. He has over 15 years of experience working in sexuality minorities’ health and promotion. His research focuses on the relationships between marginalization, violence, and social and health inequities among sexual minorities. Dr. Ferlatte is the director and lead researcher for Still Here, a photovoice research project investigating suicide among LGBTQ2S adults.
