Survey Projects
Designing and conducting surveys are one of our core projects.
We strongly believe that we need to first understand the status quo and the underlying reasons of anti-Asian racism in order to appropriately deal with its consequences.
Through our first survey in 2020, we have quantified and categorized the 4 types of violence commonly experienced by Asian diasporas, and how Asian residents perceive the existence of racism in their daily lives and their surroundings.
In 2024, we expanded our findings from the second Survey with mix-method studies. This study demonstrates specific forms of racialized and gendered experiences faced by Asian diaspora living in Europe, particularly Asian women and queer people. This study aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the forms and mechanisms of anti-Asian racism (AAR) in Europe through an intersectional lens and systemic nature of racism in everyday context.
