UBC Health is pleased to announce eight interdisciplinary and cross-institutional projects have been accepted into the Health After 2020 program and awarded $10,000 to support their work:
The Health After 2020 program promotes interdisciplinary collaborations that produce and disseminate new knowledge related to health and health equity, fosters knowledge exchange and dialogue, and creates opportunities for engagement between researchers and the public. As highlighted in our October article, the principal applicants will develop an academic output and participate in the UBC Health Dialogue Series in 2022 in collaboration with their interdisciplinary teams.
The dialogue series brings together university and community partners to discuss important issues related to the health and wellbeing of society. Participants will have the opportunity to hear from Health After 2020 project teams and engage in meaningful dialogue with colleagues and partners from both within and outside the university. Through these dialogue sessions, UBC Health is working to connect scholars, students, and community to advance interdisciplinary knowledge translation. The series is designed to activate and channel the health assets of the university and communities towards our collective aims.
