Project Pandemic: Canada Reports on COVID-19 made news by highlighting barriers faced by First Nations Communities in Saskatchewan. Many communities are far from healthcare facilities, endure crowded housing, have a large aging population, and have difficulty accessing personal protective equipment.
Project Pandemic is a data-sharing collaboration designed to support Canadian news organizations by providing local maps documenting COVID-19 infections and other unique information at no cost.
Inspirit grantee, the Institute for Investigative Journalism (Concordia University), leads the project.
Check out media coverage at Global News, Prince Albert Daily Herald and Saskatoon StarPhoenix. Learn more about the project here.
