Gallery of Memories:

Public Health Perspectives During the 2020 Pandemic

We are pleased to present the opening stage of “The Gallery of Memories.” This project has been spearheaded by the Capacity Building Committee Co-chairs and will support the collecting of stories, art, and experiences of Public Health Professionals working under colliding pandemics. We are excited to welcome the following storytellers as they talk about the impact that COVID-19 has had on their professional and personal lives:

• Trevor Hancock, Morris dancer and Professor & Senior Scholar (Retired), School of Public Health and Social Policy, University of Victoria
• Lara Frederick, Public Health Program Lead, Northeast Division, Northern Health
• Paola Ardiles, Faculty Teaching Fellow & Lecturer, Social Innovation and Community Partnerships, Faculty of Health Sciences, Simon Fraser University
• Aaren Topley, Provincial Manager, Can You Dig It, Public Health Association of BC

We encourage you to listen to their experiences, this is meant to be the start of an engaging project to celebrate public health professionals across the province. Maybe we will tell your story next!
