Abstract
  • To investigate access to health services among refugee women in Melbourne, a GIS go-along study was conducted with six Arabic speaking women. To present the findings from this innovative, hybrid data collection method, a Story Map Journal was created on ArcGIS Online Software. A Story Map Journal is an interactive web page used to display GIS data. This Story Map Journal incorporates GIS maps from the study, voice recordings from the interviews, photos as well as a description of the background and research methodology. In addition to providing an interactive approach to disseminating research findings, the overall purpose of this Story Map Journal is to showcase the perspective of refugee women in this population, demonstrate alternative ways of conducting research with marginalized communities, and highlight the importance of addressing the unique health needs of women and girls regardless of their asylum-seeking status.
