Upcoming Webinar – The Many Facets of Health in All Policies in Canada

This webinar will present a cross-cutting perspective on various Canadian initiatives featured in the Portrait of Health in All Policies in Canada series (for more details, see next news item below). Panellists representing a range of sectors will share their experiences implementing HiAP, with a focus on governance, intersectoral collaboration, evaluation, and conditions for success.

Aimed at public health professionals and their intersectoral partners, the webinar will provide an opportunity to discuss practical challenges encountered and lessons learned, with the aim of inspiring concrete action in different contexts.

This webinar is presented by the Canadian Network for Health in All Policies (CNHiAP) and the NCCHPP.

Please note that this webinar will be bilingual and simultaneous translation in English and French will be available.

New! The Core Competencies for Public Health in Canada: Release 2.0

Developed by the National Collaborating Centres for Public Health (NCCs) with funding from the Public Health Agency of Canada, the competencies define the essential knowledge, skills, and attitudes for effective public health practice.

To update the 2008 Core Competencies for Public Health in Canada, the NCCs led an extensive, multi-stage engagement process in both official languages, gathering input and feedback from the public health community across Canada.

The final document, available in English and French, presents 64 competency statements in 10 categories and includes a glossary of key terms.

Its adoption is a shared responsibility across jurisdictions and will require multisectoral collaboration. By providing a common foundation, the competencies are expected to strengthen and unify public health, guide training, workforce development, staffing, and professional learning, while supporting evidence-informed, ethical, equitable, and population-focused programs and services.
