In the community, in research

Our community research is informed by the relationships developed with a community and the impacts that are experienced over the long term. Learn more about our community research.

Researchers in HSD are leading the way on new and emerging health research, community-based research and in their work with Indigenous communities. They're building new programs that contribute to the strength of communities by addressing priorities in the areas of public health, community development and health information technology.

We have established many integral partnerships worldwide and continue to build healthy relationships with a diverse community. We engage with the community on a number of programs throughout our faculty and value our relationships with the communities we serve.
