In this episode, podcast host Anil Arora shares how the H.E.A.R. Lab team is creating change in how traditional dissemination occurs with one-pagers, social media, newsletters, and the launch of the lab's annual Walk N' Listen this month. The host acknowledges the current events that continue to impact individuals differently and how listeners can step up to be open-minded in these situations. As we share what Season 3 has in store, we hope that you will listen along to our Action Research Podcast.

Podcast host Anil Arora is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Colorado and California. He is a doctoral student at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work, where his research focuses on military and veteran individuals and their families. Anil is a first-generation Indian American, and he personally recognizes how culture, boundaries, research, literature, family, and much of life can be seen through different lenses among individuals.

Anil has a passion for learning but often notices that access to knowledge can be hard to access and difficult to understand. His experiences with being a research participant, being part of a research team, and now conducting his research pushes him to make research more accessible.

Being a part of the Hub for Engaged Action Research (HEAR) Lab has allowed him to co-create different products with team members to have research accessible on different mediums (one-pager, podcast, social media). As the current host of the Action Research Podcast, he is excited to continue learning and centering the voices of community members within research.
