Participatory Community Building with Myanmar Refugee Women in Dallas - Chie Noyori-Corbett, PhD

"Participatory Community Building with Myanmar Refugee Women in Dallas, Texas" is presented by Chie Noyori-Corbett, PhD, MSSW, Associate Director of Research at the Anne and Henry Zarrow School of Social Work at the University of Oklahoma. 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. The Network of the National Library of Medicine is funded by the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services. Learn more at https://nnlm.gov
