The Hungarian Free Press received the email below from researchers at the University of Toronto who are conducting a project on Hungarian refugees to Canada. Participants are paid an honorarium. We invite you to consider the invitation below if you arrived in Canada as a refugee.
Dear Christopher Adam,
We are recruiting individuals aged 50 and older, who are Hungarian and who left Hungary as refugees. We would like to conduct a 60-minute interview with individuals, for which they will receive an honorarium of $50.
All interviews are voluntary and will be kept totally confidential. This research study has been reviewed and approved by the Research Ethics Boards at the University of Toronto and is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).
The goal of the study is to improve our understanding of the settlement and current factors that improve well-being among older adults who were forced to leave their home country as refugees many decades earlier. See here for more information on this study.
If you have questions or would like more information, please let me know.
We really appreciate your time and help in publicizing this important project.
