Voices Across Canada: Amplifying 2SLGBTQIA+ Stories through Nationwide Outreach and Consultation

As part of The ArQuives' nationwide planning process, NetGain is playing a key role in supporting the initiative by helping to design and implement various logistical and strategic components. Specifically, NetGain is contributing to the creation of survey questionnaires, itineraries, and travel plans, ensuring that the process is both efficient and inclusive. NetGain is working closely with The ArQuives to develop survey questionnaires that will be used during the focus groups and interviews. These surveys are carefully crafted to capture the diverse experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals across Canada, with particular attention to the unique challenges faced by those in Indigenous and rural communities. The questionnaires are designed to gather both qualitative and quantitative data, allowing for a deeper understanding of the barriers and needs specific to these populations.
