Summer Institute on Sustainable Health Systems
The Summer Institute on Sustainable Health Systems was created to provide health research and health professional trainees with the opportunity to increase awareness of sustainable health systems and current action in Canada. Through guided learning activities, meetings with local sustainability leaders and nation-wide panel discussions, the Summer Institute aims to develop trainee knowledge, leadership skills and capabilities, and build professional, interdisciplinary networks of trainees and professionals with shared interests.
The Summer Institute will to be held the week of June 10 – 13, 2024, in-person at UofT, online, and at university campuses across Canada. Eligible trainees are invited to apply on the CASCADES website by Monday, April 1, 2024.
The Toronto hub is offering an intensive for-credit Reading Course on Sustainable Health Systems that includes participation in the Summer Institute. This course will be delivered in person in Toronto over 7 sessions (June 10-13, 19, 26, & July 3). Please note: This University of Toronto course credit is issued through the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation (IHPME). Trainees outside of IHPME are welcome to enroll and should follow their home program’s policies for external courses. Contact Gillian Parker, gillian.parker@utoronto.ca for more information.
