Engaging with our Multicultural Community

May 15, 2025

LiverWELL collaborated with the Western Public Health Unit, and the Centre for Ethnicity and Health (CEH) to raise awaresness of viral hepatitis, health, and migration through three dynamic and culturally tailored sessions for Vietnamese, Indian, and Iraqi community members.

The community came together to deepen their understanding of hepatitis B and C, including how to prevent, test, and seek treatment while living well with the condition. These sessions didn’t just share knowledge—they created space for dialogue, connection, and empowerment. With the support of interpreters and bilingual peer educators, participants engaged meaningfully in conversations that reflected their lived experiences and addressed real concerns, including migration and visa challenges. The initiative also highlighted the important role of the Public Health Unit in supporting community health and responding to infectious diseases. These sessions marked a significant step in building healthier, more informed, and more connected communities.
