Community of Practice: Anti-Racist Teaching for Health Education
About the project
The Community of Practice (CoP) engages educators who focus on Black health and utilize anti-racist pedagogy. The CoP brings together educators in health disciplines within Canada who are actively engaged in teaching and addressing anti-Black racism within health curricula and practice. In recognition that anti-Black racism continues to be pervasive within health education, we see a need to create a community of practice to connect educators across the nation and build capacity and networks amongst those doing this critical work.
​
This is a space for members to co-create, collaborate, share, and leverage tools and knowledge that further actions and prioritizes disrupting and addressing anti-Black racism within health programs. Collectively, we will strategize on solving pervasive issues that limit institutional engagement with anti-Black racism within health and health care.
