Quality and Learning are foundational to all service areas, yet there are subjective and varied understandings of quality and its dimensions. Typically organizations adopt principles which align with their vision and goals, yet fail to adequately address issues of racism, discrimination, and equity by embedding them in quality and learning. Jeanette Edwards and Cheryl Ward ask, "Why shouldn't racism, discrimination and equity be fundamental to all aspects of quality and safe service delivery?" In this session, they will explore the critical development and application of quality principles.
The National Indigenous Cultural Safety (ICS) Learning Series is an ongoing series of webinars hosted by Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA) Indigenous Health (www.sanyas.ca). The webinars are intended for people who wish to know more about Indigenous Cultural Safety and who may be working with Indigenous people in varying capacities across settings. For more information about ICS programming, please go to the websites.
The Learning series is focused on exploring anti-Indigenous racism, discrimination and cultural safety and identifying how each informs our systems, why they persist, and how we can address them. Our goal is to facilitate opportunities for networking, collaboration and shared learning by bringing together key stakeholders from across Canada and internationally to explore, discuss, and learn about Indigenous Cultural Safety.
Our Advisory Circle is made up of a team of leaders from across disciplines who are committed to promoting Indigenous perspectives and addressing the inequities embedded within and across our systems. They work closely with our PHSA: Indigenous Health implementation team to bring this series of webinars to you. We thank them all for their many efforts and continued dedication to making these learning opportunities available.
Funding for this web series is provided by the Provincial Health Services Authority of British Columbia.
