Pride in Health 2024: Day 2

Event Date: October 25, 2024
Event Location: Bannatyne Campus, University of Manitoba
Event Time: 9:00 am - 4:30 pm

On Thursday, October 24- Friday, October 25, 2024, the Queer & Trans Graduate Student Group and the Centre for Human Rights Research at the University of Manitoba are thrilled to host Pride in Health 2024 — a two-day conference that seeks to provide a space for 2SLGBTQIA+ students and researchers to present their work.

Building off of the success of Caring Queerly: Queer Health Symposium in October of 2023, Pride in Health will offer students and researchers from across Canada the opportunity to present their work and to build connections with one another in the process. This event also offers an important platform to combat the rampant misinformation regarding 2SLGBTQIA+ healthcare, especially trans healthcare, with research conducted here in Canada.

With a focus on healthcare as a human rights issue, this event will allow this increasingly politicised topic to be addressed from the perspective of fundamental human rights, rather than a controversial issue in need of debate. Pride in Health utilizes a broad definition of health and accepts submissions for presentations from all fields, including but not limited to creative writing, psychology, history, and sociology.

Stay tuned for Day 2 Agenda!
