AFMC Response to the Federal Budget
April 22, 2024
On the heels of its very successful international congress in Vancouver, the Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada (AFMC) watched with interest as the federal budget was announced last Tuesday. The AFMC celebrates the investments made in areas connected to the social determinants of health, such as housing, youth mental health, and a national school food program.

In July 2023, AFMC’s Culture of Academic Medicine Initiative (CAMi) launched its long-awaited Faculty Action page on the CAMi website to highlight initiatives that focus on well-being from the faculties of medicine across Canada.

Visit CAMi’s Faculty Action page and explore how our institutions are advancing the culture of academic medicine. Through a wide range of initiatives, the faculties of medicine are committed to promoting an environment of well-being and providing a safe, positive, and supportive environment for all.

From west-coast University of British Columbia’s “Office of Respectful Environments, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (REDI)” to east-coast Memorial University’s “The Gathering Rounds (TGR)”, discover what resources the faculties are implementing to embed health into campus culture for the success of learners, educators, researchers, and administrative staff.


You can also learn more about the Okanagan Charter Collaborative (OCC) and the members who are leading efforts to advance CAMi’s institutional strategy. Representatives from each faculty of medicine in Canada, EDI representatives, patient, and learner voices are working together to develop resources that will enable the implementation of the Okanagan Charter across Canada.
