The Network of the National Library of Medicine Region 3, housed at the Gibson D. Lewis Library, would like to invite you to join us for the next session of our monthly webinar series, Health Bytes with Region 3.
This monthly 1 hour series focuses on topics of interest to clinicians, researchers, faculty and information professionals.
Myanmar refugees in Dallas experience multiple challenges to their successful resettlement and consequent social integration. American resettlement requirements specify that refugees become economically self-sufficient less than six months after their arrival, an ambitious goal that is hard to achieve for any refugee, especially women. There was a serious need for an investigation of a successful resettlement through the eyes of Myanmar refugee women. The researcher will present the process and findings of 5 stages of the community participatory research project and how public libraries worked with Myanmar refugee women resettling in Dallas.
