Program
Breaking boundaries: Education as an enabler of trust in healthcare
In a world where trust is more critical - and more fragile - than ever, how can education enable trust in healthcare?
The program will dive deep into preparing students for a future shaped by expanded scopes of practice, misinformation, and planetary health. Now, more than ever, the role of interprofessional education is pivotal in rebuilding trust across the health professions.
Accreditation authorities across the health professions are committed to creating a workforce built on trust, collaboration and communication.
