Survey: The Impact of COVID-19 on Anti-Asian Discrimination and Hate Victimization: What do BC Residents Think?

Circulated on Behalf of NWDLC

From SFU’s School of Criminology

Researchers in Simon Fraser University’s School of Criminology are seeking information about discrimination and hate victimization during COVID-19 for a study titled: The Impact of COVID-19 on Anti-Asian Discrimination and Hate Victimization: What do BC Residents Think? 

Anyone meeting the study’s selection criteria is welcome to participate, but the researchers are particularly interested in those who have had direct or vicarious experiences with anti-Asian discrimination, victimization, and/or interactions with the police. The study involves anonymous surveys with BC residents to explore their experiences and feelings of safety during the pandemic and learn about perceptions of and relationships with local police. Respondents will be entered to win a gift card upon survey completion. Information:  https://ca.research.net/r/anti-asian_discrimination
