Discovering Courage

English
English with simultaneous French interpretation

As we move further into this conversation series, we build on our earlier discussions of listening, leading, and recognizing power. As we transition to summer, we shift our discussions to courage and hope in recovery and regeneration. In this session, we explore opportunities for courage and what courageous action can look like in public health. We will reflect on how public health practitioners can show courage through listening, by disrupting the status quo and in speaking out against systems built on core values inconsistent with health equity. We will discuss bold, brave actions we can take to defend all beings. We will consider the importance of being courageously persistent and resilient when re-organizing and re-structuring systems that influence health.
