Upcoming Webinar – How to Lead Intersectoral Collaborations for Health and Equity when Resources are Limited?

What needs to be considered when you want to establish or maintain intersectoral partnerships in the context of limited resources? During this webinar, we will present the results of a literature review on intersectoral actions for health and equity in the context of budgetary constraints, the experience of the COVID-19 vaccine promotion deployment initiative among Black communities in the Direction régionale de santé publique de Montréal, as well as certain reflections on the theme of intersectoral collaborations with limited resources.

By participating in this webinar, you will gain insight into the challenges, opportunities and strategies to consider when navigating these issues.

Poster – Public Health Surveillance Functions in International Jurisdictions

This poster presents an overview of an international environmental scan aimed at describing the characteristics of national public health surveillance functions from countries with contexts comparable to Canada. This scan equips public health professionals with insights to better identify and understand the dynamics of public health surveillance systems. It sheds light on the imperative of infectious disease surveillance, especially highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, while also pointing towards future challenges and opportunities such as real-time data utilization, digitalization, and enhanced knowledge sharing. Through this, it supports efforts to refine surveillance strategies, innovate with data integration, and foster informed decision-making for improved public health outcomes.
