The PRESMA (Partnered Research Evaluating Services for Migrants in Agriculture) team consists of a host of hardworking individuals. Below are the organizations and individuals involved in our study. We want to sincerely thank you for your support in this project!
Partnerships in PRESMA involve many important commitments.
Our academic team is committed to
– Communicating research results often for feedback/elaboration from community members
– Developing opportunities to brainstorm potential deliverables and ways to apply what we have learned
– Ensuring anonymity of all participants, including migrant workers and service providers alike
Our community partners commit to
– Sharing findings, lessons learned and any resources developed through the project with team-members and migrant worker clients
– Helping to amplify key messages that support the expansion of important services for migrant agricultural workers
– Providing ongoing feedback of both project processes and outputs
