The Climate Change and Health Adaptation in Northern First Nations and Inuit Communities Program is a community-centred research initiative of the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch, Health Canada. From 2008 to 2011, the program funded 37 projects (http://csch.ca/workshop/projects/) throughout the Yukon, NWT, Nunavut, Nunavik and Nunatsiavut to monitor, discuss, develop, and participate in the process of adaptation and the health implications of a changing climate.
The 2011 workshop will bring together project researchers and partners to share preliminary findings, discuss their experiences, network and strategize for the future.
All stakeholders with an interest in community based research methods, climate change and health are encouraged to attend. For those who are not able to attend the entire workshop, there will be a meet and greet with open invitation Tuesday February 8 @ 5:00 pm at the Westin in Ottawa.
The workshop will be held in conjunction with the Canadian Society for Circumpolar Health annual meeting.
