SUMMARY:PGME Global Health Day - Humanizing Global Health: Achieving Equity
DESCRIPTION:All Residents\, Fellows and Faculty are welcome to attend the\n\n2017 PGME 4th ANNUAL GLOBAL HEALTH DAY – HUMANIZING GLOBAL HEALTH: ACHIEVING EQUITY\n \nFull details from this link\nMandatory but complimentary registration from this link\n\n\n*******************\n\nOpening Address on ‘Humanizing Global Health’\nby Dr. James Lavery\, international leader in global health ethics\, community engagement\, and the ethics of international research  \n\nSchedule – Plan to attend all or part of the day as your schedule allows\n\n\n11:30am Lunch\n12:30pm Welcome and Opening Address\n2:15pm Roundtables #1 – #4\n3:30pm Roundtables #5 – #8\n4:30pm Networking and Reception\n\n\n\nGlobal Health Day Theme\nThe world is rapidly globalizing at a pace that’s hard to fully comprehend. New technology allows for healthcare innovation and accessibility that is unprecedented in many sectors. However\, despite these incredible advances\, health inequity persists – in many ways the disparity is more prevalent now than it ever has been. At the 2016 World Economic Summit\, Oxfam reported that “in 2015\, just 62 individuals had the same wealth as 3.6 billion people – the bottom half of humanity. This figure is down from 388 individuals as recently as 2010.” (Oxfam\, Briefing Paper\, January 18\, 2016)\n\nWhy do these incredible inequities exist globally and in our own backyard? Why have the monumental advances in health care not improved the lives of marginalized populations living in extreme circumstances of economic and social isolation? Where have we gone wrong and how do we get back on the right path?\n \nGlobal Health Day Objectives\nThe 2017 Global Health Day\, led by PGME\, includes University of Toronto leadership across disciplines dedicated to urgent global health issues. With the goal of achieving “equity and humanizing global health\,” Global Health Day is an education initiative with objectives to: \n\n\nDevelop a deeper understanding of the social\, political\, economic\, and professional challenges to improving global health for all.\nEncourage critical thought about how inequities can be overcome.\nIntroduce themes and issues from across disciplines on the challenges of inequity in global health.\nIdentify opportunities to continue your global health interests\, education\, and experience\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Think global\, act local! A Global Health in Emergency Medicine (GHEM) Open Meeting
DESCRIPTION:One of the ways to address the challenge of global disparity\, as a health care provider\, is to  pack your bags\, say goodbye to your family\, your practice\, and put yourself at the bedside of people who suffer its ills. Even if you are able to do this\, how do you integrate the themes that inspired you upon your return?   Are there others ways to remain involved\, closer to home?  It is with great pleasure that we continue to showcase the depths of Toronto’s EM community\, and its commitment to global health.  For this “open” meeting\,  a panel discussion available to the public\, we are exploring how physicians and nurses have combined a world view with a Toronto career.   \nPanelists:\nWendy Lai – Wendy is an emergency physician at Humber River Hospital\, has done 5 missions with MSF\, is on the Board of Directors for MSF-Canada\, and volunteers at the Community Volunteer Clinic in Scarborough\, which is part of the Canadian Centre for Refugee and Immigrant Health Care. She is part of a group of concerned citizens\, called Ripple Refugee Project\, that is sponsoring a refugee Syrian family to settle in Canada. \nRaghu Venugopal – Raghu is an emergency physician at UHN\, has been active with MSF on 6 field assignments\, is on the MSF Board of Directors and as allocator for MSF’s telemedicine system. He has supported the University of Toronto Addis Ababa collaboration in the past\, and with Dr. Wendy Lai\, co-sponsored a Syrian family of 8 recently\, with hopes of more families to follow. \nVanessa Wright – Vanessa is a Nurse Practitioner at Women’s College Hospital’s Crossroads Clinic\, where she provides comprehensive medical services to newly arrived refugee patients. She has supported the educational partnership between Addis Ababa University and the University of Toronto\, and worked as a Field Nurse for MSF. She sits of the health advisory council for the Canadian Centre for Victims of Torture. \nModerator:\nJames Maskalyk – James is an emergency physician at St. Mike’s\, and has been active in global health since 2001.  He has worked with MSF as physician and journalist\, and currently directs both GHEM and the Toronto based program\, TAAAC-EM that teaches emergency medicine in Ethiopia\, and supports the growth of the specialty.

SUMMARY:Complexity and the Ethics of Systems Thinking in Global Health
DESCRIPTION:Global health is inherently complex\, comprising as it does of a myriad of biological and social features. The complexity of health\, however\, lies not only in the countless ways biology and society – including economic and political forces – interact\, but also in the nonlinear\, dynamic\, and\, at times\, counter-intuitive manner such factors affect each other. Systems sciences\, or systems thinking\, study the various parts of a given system and the interactions between these parts. In the last decades\, systems thinking has grown from its roots in engineering and math to begin to tackle many complex social problems\, including challenges seen in global health and public health. The various systems theories each have assumptions used to conceptualize problems and their potential solutions\, including normative assumptions about what ought to be the goals of global health and how to bring them about. To date\, the various ethical and political assumptions underlying systems thinking in global health have received little examination\, but the tide is changing; at the very least\, there is a growing recognition from systems scientists and bioethics scholars about the importance of understanding the values that underpin the various systems of global health and the theories used to make sense of their complexity. \nMore information and registration: http://munkschool.utoronto.ca/event/19267/

SUMMARY:The Art and Science of Leadership: Building your Emergency Medicine Career
DESCRIPTION:The skills we learn in medical school\, and after this\, our residency\, allow our medical knowledge to flourish. After graduation\, with experience\, we become better clinicians\, more able to meet our patients’ needs. However\, this contact does not mean we know how to build a successful life. That is the real work\, and so much more difficult in setting where demands\, inside the hospital and out\, can seem much higher than opportunities. \nDuring this weekend retreat\, we will discuss with experts in the field\, Ethiopian and international\, how to make a medical career that is successful and exciting enough to last a lifetime\, and balance it so your personal life is as rich as your professional one. \nThere will be a mix of panels\, small groups\, and (very few) lectures\, that explore themes related to leadership\, unique to the Ethiopian setting\, but applicable to others like it. \n  \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1630527800556609/

SUMMARY:Gairdner Global Health Symposium - Global Preparedness for Pandemics:  Lessons from Ebola
DESCRIPTION:Growing from his landmark co-discovery of Ebola and a lifetime of global health excellence\, 2015 Canada Gairdner Global Health Award Winner Dr. Peter Piot and the Gairdner Foundation have built a one-day symposium on what has been learned and what needs to be done to address future pandemics. Emerging from a century of unprecedented human interaction\, the lessons from Ebola\, HIV/AIDS and airborne pandemics have ushered in a new understanding of the importance of a larger global health community.
