Health Equity Action Series - Learning Buddies!!

[Chris Johnston]

Health Excellence Canada is hosting a Health Equity Action Series from September though February 2027.

The series is free, virtual and open to anyone working in or alongside health and social care, including patient, family, caregiver and community partners. No prior experience with health equity work is required.

Note: Participants need to register with a ‘learning buddy’ from their organization, team, network or community.

The rationale being that learning and action for health equity can sometimes feel hard, uncomfortable and lonely. Learning alongside someone else can help strengthen reflection, accountability and action throughout the series.

I'm posting this for anyone who wants to participate with a PAN learning buddy. Please reply if you need a learning buddy or respond to someone else's request in the thread.

Edited to add: Learning buddies are expected to submit one joint registration form - rather than two separate forms.

Don't forget to make sure you're available for all the session dates below first

Key dates:

• August 14: Deadline to register

• September 29: Learning session 1 (Zoom) – 1:30-3:00 p.m. ET

• November 12: Learning session 2 (Zoom) – 1:30-3:00 p.m. ET

• January 13: Learning session 3 (Zoom) – 1:30-3:00 p.m. ET

• February 10: Closing congress (Zoom) – 1:30-3:00 p.m. ET

@Chris-Johnston I haven't signed up yet, but I would like a PAN Learning Buddy for sure. Are you taken?

@Kim-Locke

Sorry Kim - I'm taken! But hoping this thread will help other PAN members find buddies

[Kim Locke]

@Chris-Johnston Ok, hoping I find another PAN learning buddy!
