PWHR Virtual Networking and Mentoring Series

The Partnership for Women’s Health Research Canada (PWHR) is led by institutions that share a vision of “Better health for all women, trans and non-binary people through research equity, excellence, and inclusion”.PWHR’s partner institutions bring together more than 775 women’s health researchers who address health issues across the lifespan and come from diverse disciplinary perspectives. Annually, our researchers mentor more than 1300 trainees, ranging from undergraduates to postdoctoral and clinical fellows.PWHR’s partner institutions support multidisciplinary women’s health research, spanning the continuum from basic science to clinical science to epidemiology, health systems, policy and community-based participatory research. In addition to the strong representation of women’s health researchers from public health, health services research and the biological and clinical sciences, we include social scientists, historians and engineers.In all our work, we are committed to ongoing learning and practicing humility to establish mutually respectful relationships and to advance research that values the lived experiences, knowledge systems and priorities of diverse women, trans and non-binary people, particularly those who have been systemically and historically excluded in health care and health science career trajectories.
