Upcoming Webinar – Health in All Policies (HiAP) Initiatives at the Local Level: What Do They Look Like, and How to Strengthen Their Implementation?

How do people involved with Health in All Policies (HiAP) navigate the challenges and strengthen its implementation? Join us for this webinar where we will share results from a research project that investigated how HiAP has been used over time in five local governments across Ontario and Québec. A detailed case study of one of these initiatives will be presented: the Family and Social Development Policy in MRC des Maskoutains, a regional municipality in Québec.

This webinar will be of interest to anyone in the public health, family and social services, and allied sectors. It will be informative whether you are currently engaged in a HiAP/intersectoral initiative at the local level or are just thinking about the idea.

Please note that this webinar will be presented in both English and French (with simultaneous translation).
