Program Focus

Vigorous use of Data

We vigorously pursue the use of data to highlight the various social issues plaguing the BIPOC population in Canada. KAF Social Research Institute believes that relevant data speaks louder than verbal activism.

Studies of Social trends

We study social trends, dynamics and principles that commonly affect the BIPOC Communities and how these social dynamics influence inequity, marginalization, racism, and various forms of discrimination that members of the BIPOC communities face in the larger Canadian society.

Understanding limitations

We perform social research to understand better what causes some of the limitations members of the BIPOC communities to face, what motivates the sustenance of systemic racism and how to analyze the intersecting factors that work together to oppress and marginalize the Black, Indigenous and People of Colour populations in Canada.
