We are delighted to invite you to join the new Institute for Global Health (IGH) at BC Children's Hospital and BC Women's Hospital + Health Centre (BCCWH+HC). Over the last several years, with our partners, we have collaborated to reimagine the Centre for International Child Health (CICH) as an institution that works across C&W. With this objective in mind, we have created the Institute for Global Health (IGH), which embodies a shared vision and strategy centered on our commitment to global health equity. This exciting new institute will consolidate and expand the important global health initiatives already underway across BCCWH+HC and is rooted in authentic partnerships that draw from and support local expertise. Shape the Institute for Global Health - We are currently looking for nominations to join one of our 4 working groups to help shape the future of the IGH. Working groups meet approximately every 2 months with some limited time requirements in between meetings. If you’d like to self-nominate or nominate someone, (everyone is welcome), please fill out this form. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to be in touch with Simona Powell, Global Health Strategy Manager, IGH at simona.powell@bcchr.ca. We welcome everyone to follow us on Twitter @BCCWH_Global and reach out to us anytime via email at globalhealth@cw.bc.ca. We extend our appreciation to the numerous members of our community for their involvement and to our Foundations for their support in advancing global health. We look forward to working together to achieve greater equity in health globally! Sincerely, The Institute for Global Health Co-leads, Gina Ogilvie and Mark Ansermino |
