A short introduction to Students for Partners In Health Canada (SPIHC), global health equity, and the movement you’re joining. This crash course will help you understand the ideas, history, and context behind SPIHC’s work, while introducing some of the key issues, campaigns, and approaches you’ll explore more deeply at the Training Institute. Think of it as your foundation: a chance to arrive with shared context, key questions in mind, and a stronger sense of how students can contribute to advancing health equity through advocacy, organizing, fundraising, and collective action.
