SUMMARY:Research on Adolescents and Adults: If Not Now\, When?
DESCRIPTION:The 7th National Biennial Conference on Adolescents and Adults with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD)\n\nThe 7th National Biennial Conference on Adolescents and Adults with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) \nThe Hyatt Regency\, Vancouver\, BC\, Canada \nAlthough there have been thousands of published articles in FASD in general\, there has been limited research specifically on adolescents and adults with FASD or on individuals across the lifespan. As those individuals diagnosed with FASD continue to age\, the “need to know” across a broad spectrum of areas is becoming critically important for identifying clinically relevant research questions and directions. \nThis interactive 2016 conference will provide an opportunity to be at the forefront of addressing these issues. We will welcome a diverse group of professionals\, researchers\, students\, families and individuals with FASD. \nContribute your knowledge and research! The Call for Abstracts is open until September 11\, 2015. More details here:http://interprofessional.ubc.ca/AdultsWithFASD2016/abstract.asp. \nFor more information\, please visit the website at http://interprofessional.ubc.ca/AdultsWithFASD2016. \nEmail marketing.ipce@ubc.ca to get on an enquiry list for updates.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Acting across sectors - frameworks for moving forward on the social determinants of health
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health  \nFrameworks are often used to visually represent complex ideas or concepts. Numerous frameworks exist to help explain the relationship between the social determinants and health experiences and outcomes. The Canadian Council on the Social Determinants of Health\, a multi sectoral council commissioned a review of existing frameworks to identify those that support action across multiple sectors. \nThe review provides in-depth analysis of the seven frameworks deemed most useful for the purposes of leveraging action across sectors. These frameworks and the accompanying analysis can help shift public health practice towards more intersectoral\, development-oriented upstream approaches. \nThis webinar will: \n\nExplore components of relevant frameworks that support action across sectors\nHighlight the use of selected frameworks in practice and policy settings\nDiscuss future directions for the development and application of frameworks\n\nAdvisors on tap: \n\nConnie Clement\, Scientific Director\, National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health\nJoey Edwardh\, Executive Director\, Community Development Halton\nTrevor Hancock\, Professor and Senior Scholar\, School of Public Health and Social Policy University of Victoria\nSume Ndumbe-Eyoh\, Knowledge Translation Specialist\, National Collaborating Centre for Determinants of Health\n\nClick here to register. \nResource: Canadian Council on Social Determinants of Health.

SUMMARY:Webinar – What’s the buzz on PrEP? Why public health is listening
DESCRIPTION:What are gay men hearing and saying about pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)? How are they making sense of this information? Is it changing their sexual behaviours? What are the implications for public health practice? \n‘Resonance’ is a community-based research project that asked gay men and their service providers what they understood about this new HIV prevention technology and whether it had an impact on their attitudes or behaviours. \nThis webinar\, hosted by CATIE in partnership with the National Collaborating Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCCID)\, will present key findings from this project for public health practitioners. Facilitated discussion will focus on public health implications. Invited discussants will inform the dialogue\, drawing on varied experience from jurisdictions with different policy environments and from roles in guideline development\, HIV prevention research\, or community-based clinics supporting PrEP uptake. All participants are invited to speak to the challenges\, opportunities and potential role for public health in a rapidly changing HIV prevention environment. \nThe webinar is intended for public health program managers working in the area of STBBI/HIV prevention and control or healthy sexuality programming\, as well as frontline public health nurses and physicians. It may be most relevant for those working in urban public health settings. \nAbout the presenter \nSan Patten lives in Halifax\, Nova Scotia where she works as a health research and evaluation consultant.

SUMMARY:REGISTER NOW - NORTHERN BC CITIZEN SERIES WEBINAR
DESCRIPTION:Nothing About Us Without Us: Practices and Tools to Build Community Engagement and Participation \n  \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER \nEngaging community members in the planning and development of healthier communities can be at once the most difficult and most rewarding thing to accomplish. Join us for this session on the promises and perils of community engagement\, practical tools\, approaches and real-life examples from northern communities. \nThe Tale of Three Communities: \nIt wasn’t the best of times but it wasn’t the worst of times either. Three small but fictional communities in Northern BC hosted community engagement events in the fall of 2015. In the first community\, hardly anyone came out and the organizers were frustrated and discourage.In the second community\, many people showed up but they were in a bad mood and used the event to attack the organizers who were surprised and unprepared. In the third community\, the public participation event drew a large and lively crowd\, in spite of a huge snow storm the day before. The event was full of laughter and the ideas and commitments were free-flowing. The organizers were encouraged and further work together was proposed.  What accounts for such dramatic differences in the hosting of a community engagement or public participation activities? \nREAD MORE of the webinar thinkpiece….
