callout: Microintervention platform

Callout is a digital and physical experience aiming to fight against microaggressions within educational institutions. It includes a digital platform, an intervention jewelry piece, and a physical environment designed to encourage collective microinterventions between Asian-Canadians, their peers, and school faculties. With the emphasis on individual self-awareness, collective engagement, and knowledge sharing, Callout creates inclusive educational spaces for cultural minorities. Collective actions in calling out microaggressions and individual biases build a common understanding of cultural diversity and foster a welcoming environment.
