Community Event

Join the Indigenous Primary Health Care Council (IPHCC)  for an insightful webinar, Unpacking the Pillars of the IPHCC Data Governance Framework, to delve into the complexities of the IPHCC Data Governance Framework, understanding its vision, principles, and structural elements. Designed for a one-hour deep dive, this session provides stakeholders with a detailed perspective on the framework and its importance for Indigenous data governance in Ontario. A draft list of indicators to support the implementation of the framework will also be shared.

#Webinar Description:

How do we prevent falls in older adults without being overprotective? For those who are frail or approaching frailty, daily activities create risk for falls.  The term “dignity of risk” was introduced by Perske in 1972 who stated “in the past, we found clever ways to build avoidance of risk into the lives of persons living with disabilities. We have learned there can be crippling indignity in safety. Prioritizing safeguarding over the rights of individuals to independent decision-making is a limitation on personal freedom.

#About the presentation

This tool will help users of administrative and survey data to appropriately and consistently incorporate race and ethnicity variables into their projects. In this talk, Tatiana Kim discusses the challenges and lessons learned in the process of developing it as well as implications for research in British Columbia.
