Since the launch of the Report Islamophobia campaign in March 2025, a variety of public postering and engagement sessions have taken place.

During the month of March 2025, the Report Islamophobia posters could be found along the main arteries and intersections of Vancouver (Broadway, Downtown, Fraser, Commercial, Main, Yaletown, and others).
