WISE PUBLIC LECTURE
WISE is pleased to announce a virtual WISE Public Lecture with Dr. Niall Conroy. Please join us on Zoom to discuss the remarkable transformation of newborn care at Bo Government Hospital in Sierra Leone’s second-largest city. In 2013, when Niall first arrived in-country, the hospital’s children’s ward was seeing only around 10 newborns a month—despite handling 5,000 deliveries per year in a country with one of the highest neonatal mortality rates in the world. Limited services and poor outcomes led many parents and healthcare workers to believe that seeking care for sick babies was futile; most newborns died either at home or in the labour ward. Over the past decade, the hospital’s special care baby unit has been transformed. This talk will share the story of that evolution and explore how sustainable energy solutions played a key role in building a trusted, life-saving service for the community.
IBPOC Student Writing Cafés
The IBPOC Student Writing Cafés are spaces where Indigenous, Black, and graduate students of colour can come together to form supportive communities of writers. Structured by timed writing spurts and breaks, these groups make space for concerns specific to IBPOC writers.
