Knowledge Exchange and Learning Series: Facilitating equitable access to palliative and end-of-life care for underserved populations

Registration is open for a series of lively knowledge exchange events seeking to explore the connection of palliative care approaches in the health system and community organizations. The sessions are designed to facilitate connection across the whole continuum of care, promote knowledge exchange among attendees, advance the uptake of existing research, and support future research. 

You’re invited!

No matter what role you play in a patient’s journey with life-limiting illness, you have valuable information to share, and we want to hear from you. We invite anybody interested in furthering palliative care delivery and research to join this province-wide event, including researchers, healthcare providers, administrators/leaders, community organization staff and volunteers*, patients* and families*, and policymakers.  

*Some honoraria and expenses are available to patient and community partners overcome any barriers to your attendance. Contact Simon Anderson for more information (sanderson@bc-cpc.ca).

Join us

Three 2.5-hour interactive online sessions, addressing the theme “Facilitating equitable access to palliative and end-of-life care for underserved populations” will be held on Wednesdays, April 2, 9 and 16, 2025, 1:00-3:30 pm.

Participants can choose to attend all three (recommended), or just one or two based on their schedules. 

This is an interactive event where we consider everyone an expert - be it with lived, work or other experience. We look forward to having you join us for this engaging learning event on improving access to palliative care in BC!

This series is hosted by the BC Centre for Palliative Care, on behalf of the BC Palliative Care Research Collaborative, and supported in part by UBC Health through their Health After 2020 program.
