Public Scholars Initiative: Health Equity Stream Info Session

In partnership with UBC Health, the Public Scholars Initiative will be accepting applications in March 2023 for a new health equity stream. The Health Equity Stream is a dedicated funding source to further increase the number of Public Scholars Initiative scholars working to impact health equity within local, national, and global health systems.

In addition to the Public Scholars Initiative program, scholars in the Health Equity Stream will have the opportunity to engage in learning and networking focused on building interdisciplinary connections and a community of doctoral students working to improve health equity.

Health-oriented and equity-focused research exists in surprising and unexpected places across every faculty, school, and department at UBC. Doctoral students from across UBC Vancouver and UBC Okanagan undertaking innovative health equity-oriented research are invited to apply for the Health Equity Stream of the Public Scholars Initiative when the call opens in March.

Doctoral students and supervisors who are interested in the health equity stream are encouraged to attend this information session to learn more about programming, eligibility criteria, and the application process. 

Please note the session will be 12:00-1:00 pm.
