The Global Health Initiative will be hosting a series of dynamic workshops and events throughout the academic year. Workshops will explore challenges that face the global community, as well as our diverse Canadian society.
Participants of Global Health Initiative projects are required to attend all workshops. However, the workshops are also open to all UBC faculty members and students.
