Dear HCI Colleagues,
Hope you are in good health.
I am trying to put together a grant proposal (UofT internal) to develop an accessible voice-based healthcare system for marginalized communities both in Ontario and in the Global South. I already have partners from the Global South, but I do not have many from UofT. If you find this proposal interesting, I will be very happy to add you as my collaborator on this proposal (and your required workload for this is close to zero).
I have attached the grant call to this mail. The deadline is April 1.
Here is the first draft of the proposal, and I will keep polishing it until the deadline is over.
Please let me know if you are interested. Also, your comments, suggestions, etc. are welcome.
Best Regards,
Ishtiaque
[P.S. (March 15, 2020, and onward): My response may be late because of my engagement with the COVID-19 response teams in Canada, Bangladesh, and Australia. I appreciate your patience.]
