Current Projects

Our inaugural StudioDH partnership is with Senior Watch Old Ottawa South (SWOOS). SWOOS was interested in learning more about social isolation and lonlinness (SIL) among older adults in Old Ottawa South. Together we developed a research project to explore experiences of social connection and social isolation in the neighbourhood. The first StudioDH student cohort came on board in Fall 2025.
