![How do queer* people experience online harm in Canada? [Please share!]
McMaster researchers are looking for queer individuals, aged 18 or older and residing in Canada, to take part in an anonymous survey. The survey asks about queer people’s experiences of harm on digital platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Twitter (X), Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch.
The survey is administered online in English and takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. Before beginning, you will be presented with a Letter of Information and asked to indicate your consent by selecting a consent button. Participation in this study is entirely voluntary, and you may choose not to participate or withdraw at any time after providing consent without any consequences.
You can access the survey by clicking the link in the post.
For questions about this study, please contact: cochra1@mcmaster.ca
* For the purpose of this study, we use queer as an umbrella term to refer to those whose gender identity or sexual orientation fall outside of heterosexual or cisgender. Examples include asexual, bisexual, gay, lesbian, pansexual, non-binary, genderqueer, genderfluid, Two-Spirit, and trans people.
This study has been reviewed by and received ethics clearance from the McMaster Research Ethics Board (#7697).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xl3qvnythgsmb75c3y2je6ez/bafkreiecmfnouebo2yzhoglqipcb6g65n6rjerq36z5luonzwiwvlr6ufi@jpeg)

I attended Making: A Feminist Praxis at #DH@Guelph this week, led by the incredible @antimony27.bsky.social and @kieraobbard.bsky.social! Here’s a bit of what I created, which I themed around the question: How might feminist making replicate, resist, or reimagine computation? #DHMakes

I had the incredible opportunity to co-author The Canadian Women's Foundation’s research report that explores how women and gender-diverse people—especially those from underserved communities—experience digital harm. #TFGBV #GenderBasedViolence #DigitalHarms
