Dr. Gordon Gow has been engaged in research in Sri Lanka and

India over the last several years. He first helped to develop an early-

warning system for residents in the wake of the devastating 2004 Indian

Ocean Tsunami. More recently, he has been a partner in the Real-Time

Biosurveillance Program (RTBP), a multi-partner research initiative to

study the potential for new Information and Communication Technologies

(ICTs) to improve early detection and notification of disease outbreaks in

Sri Lanka and India. It received funding (approx. $300k) from Canada’s

International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and was administered

in Sri Lanka by LIRNEasia, the same agency that Dr. Gow worked with on

his project to implement and assess community-based tsunami warning

systems following the 2004 tsunami disaster..

The primary research objective of the Real-time Biosurveillance

Program (RTBP) was to evaluate the role that information and

communication technologies could play in improving disease monitoring,

detection, and reporting in Sri Lanka. The RTBP established a testbed to

duplicate existing paper-based procedures using ICT-based components.

Patient data was gathered using a software application implemented on

low cost mobile phones and transmitted to a central server using a

wireless data link. Data was analyzed using advanced software

developed by Carnegie Mellon

University’s Auton Lab. Results were

then made available to regional and local

health officials as electronic alerts

accessible through a variety of devices,

including mobile phones. The objective

of this project was to identify disease

outbreaks in as little as 24 hours, as

compared to the two to three weeks

typical of paper based monitoring,

thereby helping to nip outbreaks in the

bud before they affected a large number

of people.

One of the greatest challenges facing governments today

is the effective delivery of health and social services for

low-income families. Most public funding is distributed to

particular sectors and departments, to address single- faceted

issues . As a result, most programs geared to Albertans with low

income are fragmented, with little integration across systems.

How is it to experience such disconnected services on a

daily basis? What changes are needed to improve service integration

and delivery and, as a result, health outcomes for families?

To answer these questions the Families First edmonton

(FFe) photovoice project was initiated by the Community-

University Partnership for the Study of Children, youth, and

families (CUP) unit within the faculty of Extension. Ten mothers

with low income were asked to chronicle their experiences trying

to access health and social service practices in pictures and

words. This is a recognized qualitative research technique known

as Photovoice.

Their photographs and stories were presented by the

research team and the women themselves to a broad range of

audiences. The stories were so engaging that the women were

unable to keep up with the requests for presentations. Therefore,

the women and the research team decided to create a short

documentary film. The film, titled Bureaucrazy, was developed

as a knowledge translation tool for policy and decision-makers,

service providers, students and others interested in improving

the provision of health and social services in Alberta.

The project was led by Dr. Maria Mayan, Assistant Director

of CUP and in charge of the Women and Children’s Health section.

Dr. Mayan states that “Clients of our many social services are

generally silent in all the discussions that go on related to these

services. Photovoice lets their voices be heard and enables them

to be engaged in action for change.”

The Photovoice Project was funded by the Canadian

Institutes of Health Research and the Native Counselling Services

of Alberta.

photovoice: Helping Low-income families Document their Experiences

Dr. Gow was involved in this project in a number of ways. One was

the RTBP alerting component, building on work that began in 2005 when

Dr. Gow was working with LIRNEasia on community-based tsunami

warning. Both projects have been pioneering efforts in the deployment

and testing of the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP), an open source data

interchange standard that supports the development of multimedia,

all-hazards alerting systems.

The implementation of the RTBP alerting and notification

component will provide important evidence regarding the opportunities

and challenges associated with inter-jurisdictional alerting and notification

for e-Health systems in the region. The project formally concluded in

Sept. 2010 with a series of meetings in Colombo.

Dr. Gow’s work on the project has implications here in Canada as

well. His experience with the Common Alerting Protocol has led to

ongoing involvement with the federal government and Alberta provincial

governments as they continue to develop next generation public alerting

systems based on CAP. As one aspect of Dr. Gow’s ongoing involvement

in this area of research, he is Principal Investigator on a SSHRC Standard

Research Grant on emergency alerting at Canadian post-secondary

educational institutions. He also has a growing involvement with the use

of mobile communications devices in research and community-engaged

projects. He is leading an initiative through the MACT program, in which

he teaches graduate courses, to build research capacity and expertise in

using mobile phones to support research activities. Under the MARS

(Mobile Applications for Research Support) Lab Initiative, Dr. Gow

provides access to software, equipment, and expertise for researchers,

grad students, and community organizations that are interested in using

mobile devices to reach out to participants or community members.

The Community-University Partnership for the Study of Children,

youth, and families (CUP), the yellowhead Tribal College, and the five

member Nations of the yellowhead Tribal Council are collaborating on a

community-based research (CBR) project. The 3-year, $500,000 study is

co-led by Dr. Rebecca Gokiert (assistant professor in the faculty of

Extension) and Tracey Poitras-Collins (special projects coordinator,

yellowhead Tribal College) and is funded by the Social Sciences and

Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and Max Bell foundation.

The five first Nations represent three unique language groups

each with distinct cultural practices and protocols for raising their young

children and engaging in research. Presently, early childhood

developmental data is being collected throughout the province of Alberta

using the Early Development Instrument (EDI; Janus & Offord, 2007). The

EDI is a population measurement tool completed by kindergarten

teachers to measure the developmental health of 5-year-old children

across five domains. Results from the EDI provide communities with

evidence to support resource development and allocation that optimize

child development. Within first Nations, EDI data is often incomplete as it

does not reflect important domains of development such as dual cultural

development, language, and spirituality. As a partnership, the goal is to

complement the early childhood development information that is currently

being collected in the five first Nations to reflect the values, culture

context, and spirituality that are important in raising their young children.

Given the diverse cultural landscape of Alberta, the findings from

this study not only have the potential to improve the EDI for first Nations

children, but also provide a space for Indigenous and non-Indigenous

scholars, academic institutions, students, and community members to

collaborate and build a culture of research and training to address social

issues that emerge from the yTC communities.

“Through this collaboration we hope to work with communities,

governments, and policymakers to identify the types of services,

resources, and supports children and their families need to provide the

best possible start in life” says Dr. Gokiert.

The Research

Showcase, which over

the past three years has

become a signature event

for research in the faculty of

Extension, was held March

11, 2010 at Enterprise

Square and the Delta City

Centre hotel. This year it

was combined with a

conference on Community-

Engaged Research. About

panels, and poster presentations.

Keynote speaker Dr. Budd Hall, founding Director of the University

of victoria’s Office of Community Based Research, introduced the theme

and set the tone for the day. The sessions and lectures of the day were

all based around the various dimensions of engaged research within

communities and institutions of higher education across Canada and

elsewhere. Topics addressed include community-based research,

community service-learning, continuing education and extension,

cooperative education, indigenous-centered research, performing arts,

and knowledge mobilization.

Each year, in conjunction with its Spring Institute, the MACT program holds a Research Symposium where MACT students are able to showcase their research with posters mounted in the Atrium of Enterprise Square. In 2010 the Symposium was held on May 21, with 20 posters describing student research. MACT student Simone Moreau-Rodgers said, “I am just so pleased that we have the opportunity as a cohort to showcase our work not only to each other and our instructors, but to the public as well.”

The Symposium also featured a lecture from Dr. Linda Putnam from the Department of Communications at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Her topic was “Models of Engaged Scholarship: Developing the Research Paradigm.” The Symposium also included a panel discussion among Jeff Bisanz, Director of the Community-University Partnership (CUP) at the University of Alberta, Lois Hawkins, Deputy Minister of Culture and Community Spirit with the Government of Alberta and Sheila Pratt, Journalist with the Edmonton Journal.

City-Region Studies Centre (CRSC) engaging with communities to shape our region

The City-Region Studies Centre (CRSC) is a University of Alberta research unit based in the faculty of Extension that engages with communities to explore the nature of towns, cities, and regions. During 2010 the Centre was highly active in a number of ways, including:

• Sponsoredresearchwork,includingpublishingtheresultsofastudy of Urban Rural Interdependencies

• PublishingthesemiannualCURBmagazine,anacademicandpractitioner publication addressing the core challenges facing city-regions in Canada and elsewhere

• OrganizingaRegionalPlanningSpeakerSeriesdesignedtobringtogether leaders in the academy with an audience of planners, elected officials and the wider development community

The CRSC also hosted these two major events during 2010:

shaping our region – a one day symposium on June 25 in Edmonton in collaboration with the Capital Region Board (CRB). This event brought together an array of international academic expertise with local elected officials, planners and community developers. The symposium provided a forum of reflection as the CRB moves to adopt an economic development roadmap for the region.

Unwrap the research conference – a conference held in fort McMurray on October 22-24. This event brought together social researchers from the University of Alberta and elsewhere with local community participants from fort McMurray and Wood Buffalo. Researchers shared their knowledge and discussed with the local participants such issues as welfare, health, environment, various aspects of the workforce, space and housing, population growth, and other issues in this unique region.

During the year CURB Magazine ran a photo contest that produced a plethora of interesting and sometimes beautiful images of the Edmonton region. Here are some of the results of that technique of disseminating knowledge.
