1-Day Annual Health Ethics Conference

Who owns the truth - and how do we build a more just and trustworthy healthcare system?   

We acknowledge with gratitude and humility that this event will take place on the traditional homelands of the Coast Salish people, the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh)

This conference event will explore themes including: 

• The rise of misinformation and dispute of ‘facts’: How has public trust in scientific and medical information eroded, and what can be done to repair it?
   
• Truth and Reconciliation in healthcare: Whose stories get told and what truths have been excluded or erased from healthcare discourses? How do we confront historical and ongoing harms to build pathways for justice, accountability, and healing?
   

• The ethics of truth-telling in clinical encounters: Navigating transparency, uncertainty, and the moral obligations of clinicians
