Resource Document - Stride to Wellness: A Community Movement and Knowledge Exchange

On November 8, 2023, the CeMCOR team hosted a community event at the Mountain Equipment Company (MEC) store in Vancouver. The event included a run/walk led by Filsan Abdiaman, founder of Project Love Run, followed by a participatory design workshop involving community members, researchers, and facilitators. This workshop, a unique initiative by CeMCOR to strengthen community outreach saw the attendance of 18 community members across a wide age group.

Participants engaged in collaborative exercises designed to foster conversations and knowledge exchange about challenges, strategies, and practices on topics including diet, exercise, and nutrition in relation to menstrual health and wellness. The event emphasized the significance of combining physical activity, expert knowledge, and community spirit to promote holistic well-being, with participants leaving the workshop feeling informed and supported. 

Following the discussions from the community event, we created a downloadable Resource Document (see .pdf below) which includes helpful tips from the community and expert insights on diet, nutrition, menstrual cycles, and ovulation.
