Calling potential graduate students

You are invited to attend the Environment Faculty Open House on Tuesday Jan 20, 4-6:30 pm, EV3 4th floor.

This is a recruiting event to invite potential students to come, learn about the masters and doctoral programs, hear about some of the exciting research underway. This is a great opportunity to ask questions about the new Dean's Doctoral Initiative.

Along with the rest of the graduating class, Knowledge Integration student and GoHelP lab member Alexandra Olarnyk will be presenting her honours thesis poster Friday March 27th, 2015. Supervised by Professor Susan Elliott, Alex's thesis looks at the experiences and perceptions of food allergy on the University of Waterloo campus.

Throughout 2020, issues related to health equity have been brought to the foreground. While Global Health as a discipline has long been concerned with the social determinants of health and health inequities, it is also criticized for reproducing inequitable relations through neo-colonial practices. Major events of 2020 (including the global COVID-19 pandemic; global anti-racism movements; record wildfire season) present an opportunity to think differently about Global Health and move toward more equitable health futures.
