Advancing Health Equity: A Collaborative Consultation on Practice and Progress

This online discussion is hosted by Access Alliance Multicultural Health & Community Services. It is a follow-up event to their previous webinar, : Bridging Gaps in Care: Reimagining Ontario's Health System for Immigrants and Refugees, which took place on May 27, 2025.

One of the recommendations from the Compounding disadvantage: the impact of COVID-19 on immigrants living with cancer or mental health and addiction disorders project was to provide cultural sensitivity, competence, and safety training to front-line staff and service providers to improve the inclusivity of services and ensure that immigrant and marginalized populations receive equitable health care. We believe a health equity framework and toolkit can help accomplish this. This session is focused on discussing current and needed health equity training for healthcare service providers (and those who work to help newcomers navigate the system) in Ontario. 

# Join us to continue the conversation

Join us on July 31st from 10am – 11:30am for an online discussion: Advancing Health Equity: A Collaborative Consultation on Practice and Progress.

We'll work together to answer: What does health equity and health equity training mean and look like within the context of your organization and work?

# Workshop Goal

This workshop aims foster a collaborative dialogue among health sector professionals and staff, exploring current understanding and organizational operationalization of health equity, cultural safety, and efforts to create welcoming and inclusive environments, while identifying successes, best/promising practices and areas for future development.

This session is a consultation to share experiences, learn from one another, and collectively identify pathways forward in operationalizing health equity. This will include discussions on cultural safety tied to staff training on anti-oppression and anti-racism, and creating inclusive, welcoming environments to reduce all forms of organizational discrimination and ensure physical and functional accessibility to care.

This will be a highly interactive session with breakout discussions providing an opportunity to share, learn, and build a future-focused vision of health equity training and implementation. Like our first webinar, you’ll spend most of the time together in these breakout discussions discussing concrete examples and successes of health equity training and operationalization in your organizations, as well as identifying ongoing challenges and future priorities when it comes to health equity training. 

# Who should join

This session is designed for Ontario-based healthcare professionals, including front-line staff and managers, whether they are in the early stages of their health equity journey or have more extensive experience. It will also be useful for healthcare-adjacent professionals who work with newcomers to navigate and access Ontario's healthcare system.

Please share with others in your organization and network you think would be interested in this discussion.
