Youth, Artists Celebrating Canadian Innovation Week #CIW24
This year, May 13-17, 2024 is Canadian Innovation Week! It’s one of our favourite weeks of the year, and we’re proud to be taking part.
Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3 aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. It addresses all major health priorities, including: reproductive, maternal and child health, infectious, chronic and, non-communicable diseases, strengthening the prevention, harm reduction and treatment of substance use, universal health coverage, mental health including addictions, health of Indigenous communities and access for all to safe, effective, quality and affordable medicines and vaccines.
It also calls for more research and development, increased health financing, and strengthened capacity of all countries in health risk reduction and management.
Canadians do not experience good health and well-being equally. Many of these inequalities are the result of individuals’ and groups’ relative social, political, and economic disadvantages. Working to reduce health inequalities means helping to give everyone the same opportunities to be healthy, no matter who they are or where they live. Measures to reduce health inequalities, systemic barriers and addressing the social determinants of health emphasize strengthening the evidence base to inform decision making, engaging beyond the health sector, and sharing knowledge of action across Canada.
