TAKING CARE: Ensuring Equitable Health for the Future
Hosted by Quadrangle NL, in partnership with OPED
Health is more than access to medicine—it is shaped by social, cultural, and environmental forces that determine how we live, work, and thrive. TAKING CARE is a forward-looking conference that brings together thought leaders, researchers, practitioners, and community voices to explore how equity must be placed at the center of health systems, policies, and innovations.
