E-conference titled "The Black Student Experience in Academia"
https://bgsa2021conference.artsrn.ualberta.ca/
"The University of Alberta’s Black Graduate Students’ Association would like to thank APIRG for its generous support and contribution toward making the BGSA 2021 Conference a huge success. The allotted funding ensured that we compensated our participants appropriately for the time and effort they expended in speaking about anti-Black racism, a topic that often requires vast outlays of emotional labor. Our dealings with you throughout the application and reimbursement process was seamless. Notably, Shima Robinson ensured that we had all the information needed to submit a strong application. Once our application was approved, Meara meticulously educated us on the reimbursement process. Furthermore, APIRG helped amplify our promotional material on Instagram, ensuring that news about the conference was spread to a wide audience. We are especially thankful for this assistance, as it helped increase the BGSA’s visibility across the student community at the University of Alberta, and the province, more generally. "

By Medical Herstory.
"Thank you APIRG for funding Medical Herstory's second annual Feminist Health Research Conference. At this conference we pushed boundaries of what counts as research, whose voices are heard, and what the future of health(care) could look like from a feminist lens. The event brought together leading researchers, advocates, and practitioners from all around the world. We offered hands on workshops, lived experience panels, healthcare professionals perspectives, and headliners who are changing the future of gender health equity. We can't wait to continue this work and thank you APIRG for supporting Medical Herstory's mission to eliminate sexism, shame, and stigma from health experiences. "
