NCCHPP: Implementing Health in All Policies Approaches in Canada

This webinar will address the following question: What do public health and civil society actors need to know to implement Health in All Policies (HiAP) approaches in Canada? It is intended for public health professionals and decision makers, civil society organizations, and anyone interested in learning about HiAP approaches.

The webinar will provide an overview of HiAP and its relevance. Presentations will draw on the experience of the Atlantic Summer Institute on Healthy and Safe Communities – a leader in HiAP that is active in all four Atlantic provinces – as well as on the experience of a provincial government that adopted a HiAP approach. They will illustrate how HiAP approaches can be implemented, whether driven by a civil society group or by a government initiative. The presenters will also analyze HiAP competency needs in Canada by presenting an overview of existing training, complemented by observations drawn from consultations completed in four provinces in 2022.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of the webinar, participants will be able to describe:
- the bases of HiAP approaches and their roles at the federal/provincial/territorial (FPT) levels;
- a top-down (promoted by a government) and a bottom-up (promoted by civil society) example;
- existing training and training needs.

The webinar will be recorded and will be made available online.
