Longitudinal Examination of Newcomer-Serving Social Enterprises
Longitudinal Examination of Newcomer-Serving Social Enterprises (LENS) is a research study that focuses on ESEs or WISEs and the impact they have on newcomer and BIPOC populations in overcoming socioeconomic barriers.
Learn MoreInnovative Approach
Our varied and innovative research approaches include participatory, arts-based and digital methods, in addition to surveys, interviews and focus groups locally and nationally, aiming to shed light and respond to the most pressing issues for settlement and integration.
Our Expertise
Practitioners and immigrants themselves are experts and producers of knowledge, rather than subjects or data sources for research. We employ experts on a variety of research and evaluation methods and work closely with our academic teams to synergize scholarly with community-based knowledges and expertise, in order to inform an innovative settlement service provision.
