In recognition of the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation, the School of Population and Global Health invites students, faculty, and staff to a day of reflection, learning, and cultural connection. This event aims to honour the survivors of residential schools, their families, and Indigenous communities across Canada.
The event will feature two key activities:
Join us for the first seminar of the Department of Global and Public Health's Fall 2024 series with Dr. Aviane Auguste, who will deliver a talk titled "Bridging Gaps in Cancer Control".
The Margaret A. Gilliam Institute for Global Food Security, the McGill School of Population and Global Health, and the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences invite you to celebrate World Food Day with a keynote lecture titled: Transforming Global Food Systems through Diversification, Innovation and Gender Inclusion by Dr. Ismahane Elouafi, Executive Managing Director of the CGIAR (formerly the Consultative Group for International Agricultural Research). A cocktail will follow the presentation.

About Reading Abbott
Maude Abbott loved to read. This exhibition explores both what she read and ways we can read her life story. While many publications on the famous doctor have focused on the barriers she faced in a male-dominated profession, this exhibition places Abbott among her favourite authors, texts, and locations. At its heart are Abbott’s five diaries. These precious journals record her daily activities, meetings, travels, meals, health, friends, books, and even her hair appointments.
