As part of McGill's bicentennial celebration, the School of Population and Global Health presents:
A Leadership Forum for Health in a New Century
Public health crises are becoming increasingly complex. The COVID-19 pandemic is indicative of a broader set of acute and chronic threats to health, health equity and well-being in the 21st century. In the face of these challenges, a high premium is being placed on leadership for health that spans the local to global and stretches across sectors and public-private divides. Through a focus on hot-topic issues and animated by thought leaders, this forum will consider how fit-for-purpose leadership for health can be nurtured more effectively through health professional training.
Featuring keynote speakers Drs. Lincoln Chen and Julio Frenk, co-Chairs of the Lancet Commission on Health Professionals for a New Century with facilitator Victor Dzau
The Commission on Health Professionals for a New Century issued sweeping recommendations in 2010 to transform health professional education to achieve health equity. Nearly a decade after, public health crises are becoming increasingly complex and threaten health, health equity and well-being in the 21st century. To address these challenges, more focus is being placed on health leadership that spans the local to global, stretching across sectors and public-private divides.

Les crises de santé publique se complexifient. La pandémie de COVID-19 est révélatrice d’un plus grand nombre de menaces aiguës et chroniques pour la santé, l’équité en matière de santé et le bien-être au 21esiècle. Au vu de ces défis, une grande importance est accordée à un leadership en matière de santé qui s’étend du contexte local au contexte mondial et qui transcende les secteurs et les divisions entre le public et le privé. Ce forum – Leadership pour la santé au 21e siècle – mettra l’accent sur des sujets d’actualité et sera animé par des leaders d’opinion qui examineront comment la formation des professionnels de la santé peut permettre de développer plus efficacement un leadership adapté aux objectifs.
Des rafraîchissements seront servis après la conférence.
