The Institute for Global Health at BC Children’s Hospital and BC Women’s Hospital + Health Centre are thrilled to announce the 7th Annual Global Health Conference (GHC25). This year’s conference will take place on 10 April 2025 from 8:30 am to 1:30 pm PDT at BC Children’s Hospital’s Chan Centre for Family Health Education. GHC25 will be presented in a hybrid format and offer both in-person and virtual access.
This year’s theme is Creativity Through Crisis: Lessons from Global Mental Health. GHC25 will provide a platform to discuss the intensifying impact of global crises—conflict, climate change, and COVID-19—on mental health disparities worldwide. The conference will delve into the far-reaching effects of these global stressors while spotlighting innovative responses that are reshaping mental health care. The goal is to create an inclusive discussion forum for anyone interested in global health or mental health – everyone is welcome to attend!
