Description
Siobhan Wong King Yuen and co-authors work with newcomer families on child vaccines in a 2024 Alberta study. New families in Canada often face blocks when they seek routine shots for their kids. The team ran a workshop in Calgary to turn known blocks into fixes.
Fifteen people ranked fixes by impact and ease of use. Top picks were firm facts in home tongues, more booking slots, a simpler booking path, and a bigger role for family doctors. The group then made school vaccine leaflets, tested them with parents, and rendered them in ten tongues. The study shows how co-design turns access talk into tools families can use.
