Francophonie and Health

The Francophonie and Health is led by Dr. Michelle Lalonde, Associate Professor at the University of Ottawa School of Nursing.  It aims to:

• promote research on the health needs of Francophones, especially minorities in the Francophone community;
• create a network of health professionals who have an interest in Francophone health care;
• create a training environment for students in health-related programs who have an interest in Francophone health care; and
• create a directory of relevant tools for health services that are available in French

In addition, the hub offers training workshops for students and a conference on Francophonie and Health Services for members.
