Canadian Public Health Week: The impact of COVID-19 on public health: Comparing experiences & sharing recommendations for the future

Canada’s public health associations are pleased to host the inaugural “Canadian Public Health Week”, 4-8 April 2022. 

Public health is the invisible guardian of our health. The COVID-19 pandemic has made public health more visible and its efforts more appreciated. 

Canadian Public Health Week is a time to recognize the contributions of public health and highlight issues that are important to improving our health and well-being.

• In Quebec, the week runs from 4-10 April and is known as La semaine de la santé durable : Les Québécois·es au cœur de l’économie. Throughout the week, the Association pour la santé publique du Québec will discuss different facets of an economy designed by and for Quebecers. Beyond human activities related to the production, exchange, distribution and consumption of goods and services, they will also focus on the distribution of resources and their sustainable use.
• On Thursday 7 April, to mark World Health Day, ASPQ has an entire day of programming. Read more here.
