I'd like to share a few resources related to the use of demographic data collection to improve health equity.

The first is the Measuring Health Equity website of Sinai Health System, an extensive resource on demographic data collection. Among other things, this site offers a number of tools to aid with demographic data collection.

Next are two resources published by the Colour of Poverty:

  1. another tool template for gathering demographic data
  2. a one-page infographic on the topic of disaggregated data: in English and French.

Feel free to respond with other helpful resources related to demographic data collection in health equity work.

In the last few days, health officials in Ontario have mentioned they will start collecting demographic data related to race and socioeconomic status for people who have Covid-19:

CTVNews. "Ontario will soon start asking COVID-19 patients about race and socio-economic status."
