1:00-2:00 PM — Education Showcase
Kick off the afternoon by exploring the exciting initiatives happening across the Centre for Faculty Development and Unity Health Education. This showcase is a great opportunity to connect with colleagues, learn about current programs, and spark new ideas for collaboration.
2:00–3:30 PM — Dr. Jana Lazor Memorial Faculty Development Lecture: Planetary Health & Compassionate Care
Guest speakers: Angela Mashford-Pringle, Ross Upshur
As climate change reshapes the landscape of health and care delivery, compassionate care must extend beyond individual patients to encompass communities, ecosystems, and future generations. This keynote explores how planetary health can be integrated into education, training, and professional development as a core dimension of ethical, responsive practice. Focusing on the needs of practicing professionals and health delivery organizations, we will examine key planetary health content and concepts, and consider how these can be delivered through flexible, practice-oriented learning approaches. These include case-based learning, interprofessional collaboration, and land-and place-based learning, which deepen understanding of the connections between health, environment, and stewardship.
