"description": "https://ticketfi.com/event/4030/leveraging-the-okanagan-charter-to-bounce-forward\n\nPost-secondary institutions face complex issues around health and wellbeing, including the implications surrounding the global COVID-19 pandemic, the climate emergency, and the renewed urgency to advance Indigenous peoples' human rights and to address systemic racism for racialize communities.
The Okanagan Charter for Health Promoting Universities & Colleges provides us with a common language, principles, and framework to address these pressing systemic issues as it calls on higher education institutions to embed health into everyday operations, business practices and academic mandates.
The Canadian Health Promoting Campus Network invites you to join us in a dialogue to investigate this unique moment of disruption that could allow for big societal change, by discussing:
- How we can best leverage this time to address multiple crises.
- How universities can approach human rights, wellbeing, and sustainability in a unified way.
- How we can effectively convene conversations with various levels of leadership in post-secondary education.
- How to structure this work to focus both on individual action, while shifting policy, culture, and societal change.
Students will help us to kick off the event, speaking to their experiences with these intersecting social issues and discuss why it is important for postsecondary education to make wellbeing, equity, and climate emergency priorities right now. We will learn about the value of taking a collective impact approach to address these prioirities. We will then have leaders from postsecondary education who focus on wellbeing, equity, and sustainability speak to successes and missed opportunities for taking a collective impact appraoch.
