The Canadian Public Health Association hosted their national conference from October 6-8th 2021. The conference brings together public health professionals, policy makers, academics, and students from multiple disciplines and sectors to share new research and best practices on a range of public health topics.
The KDE Hub was invited by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) to host their session as a conference collaborator. The Hub invited two MHP-IF projects to participate on a panel of speakers, along with themselves. The goal of the session was to profile one multi-year investment by PHAC in mental health promotion, share experiences of pandemic adaptations from all 20 MHP-IF projects across Canada, and hear first-hand lived experiences of these adaptations from two MHP-IF projects.
