Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Virtual Learning Exchange
This virtual learning opportunity aims to build the capacity to be equitable and inclusive in our work as we engage with diverse people with lived experiences.
The Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Virtual Learning Exchange (EDI VLE) is a ‘learning by doing’ opportunity where we can collectively grow and deepen our understanding of ways to dismantle systemic inequities that impact the safety and quality of care.
Through webinars and guided reflections, EDI VLE aims help you:
- Identify and discuss the root causes of inequities in healthcare.
- Learn how to challenge and dismantle systemic and structural inequities that impact individuals and communities through a trauma and resiliency informed lens and anti-oppressive framework.
- Explore accessible and equity-oriented approaches to delivering safer, high-quality healthcare.
This virtual learning exchange is co-designed with an advisory group comprised of people with diverse health system perspectives, including those with lived experience, pan-Canadian health organizations, and provincial quality councils.
