Connecting Dots

ABOUT US

The South Asian COVID Task Force is a grassroots, volunteer organization made up of physicians, researchers, and other professionals across Canada.  Our mission is to establish and strengthen networks and partnerships in our communities, and across all faith and cultural groups, to support the COVID-19 pandemic response. Our specific focuses are to:

1) Educate our communities about the current situation of COVID-19 in Canada and the recommended measures to keep safe and reduce its spread

2) Develop and disseminate culturally appropriate communications in multiple South Asian languages through readily accessible mediums

3) Recognize and understand the drivers of COVID-19 transmission and the unique challenges and barriers faced by our community

4) Support education to reduce vaccine hesitancy and build vaccine confidence both at a national level and using a targeted community approach
