Fanning the Flames: the ZXX Study and Maternal and Infant Health Canada’s Research by Farah Shroff

Abstract

Will the re-emergence of traditional health knowledge in India, in the form of the AYUSH Ministry and otherwise, improve the health of women and children? Maternal and Infant Health Canada is studying this question with our partners in India and we’ll present our ideas in progress. Want to hear life stories of Parsi women? The ZXX project is an oral herstory study conducted by and for the Parsi community. We’ll discuss the project and it’s Canadian and Indian participants.
