Leveraging arts-based methods in research dissemination: Partnering with community and using film to address HIV stigma
Leveraging arts-based methods such as film can be utilized for research dissemination. In this webinar, Dr. Angela Kaida, Juno Roche, and Azra Bhanji will discuss how they are using their film HIV Made Me Fabulous to help share HIV science to reduce stigma and discrimination.
HIV Made Me Fabulous is a 10-minute film that tells the personal story of Juno Roche, a writer, activist and trans woman, who has been living with HIV for over 25 years. Grounded in HIV science, the film examines issues related to HIV, intersectionality, and sexual health equity, and delivers these themes through embodied storytelling.
Learning Objectives
After this webinar, the audience will be able to:
- Understand the use of arts-based methods in research dissemination
- Understand the methods used to develop a dissemination strategy and measure its reach
- Understand the impacts of film as a knowledge translation tool to affect change
