AFMC is pleased to announce the launch of a third year of funding for student-run Public Health Interest Groups ($500.00 per faculty of medicine campus). 

Deadline for applications is June 30, 2009.

This funding has been made possible through a financial contribution from the Public Health Agency of Canada.

http://www.afmc.ca/social-public-health-e.php.  Two reports that provide guidance and suggestions for creating new interest groups are available on the website. Funding is available for each medical faculty campus (i.e. Sherbrooke and SherbrookeMoncton campuses would both be able to receive funding).

A total of 10 Interest Groups were active in 2008/2009.  We hope to fund more groups in this next cycle.  Those funded this past year were:  

Dalhousie University

McGill University

NOSM

University of Alberta

University of British Columbia

University of Calgary

University of Manitoba

University of Saskatchewan

University of Toronto

University of Western Ontario - Schulich

 

 

Bonjour,

L’AFMC a le plaisir d’annoncer le lancement de la troisième année de financement destiné aux groupes d’intérêts en santé publique (500 $ par campus de faculté de médecine).   

L’échéance pour présenter une demande est le 30 juin 2009. Vous trouverez plus de renseignements sur le formulaire de demande. Ces fonds sont disponibles grâce à une contribution financière de l’Agence de la santé publique du Canada.

http://www.afmc.ca/social-public-health-f.php.  Deux rapports qui donnent des conseils et des suggestions pour créer de nouveaux groupes d’intérêts se trouvent aussi dans le site Web.  Chaque campus d’une faculté est admissible à recevoir des fonds (p. ex. les campus de Sherbrooke et de Sherbrooke – Moncton auraient tous deux droit à des fonds). 

En 2008-2009, au total, 10 de ces groupes d’intérêts étaient en activité. Nous espérons financer un plus grand nombre de groupes durant le prochain cycle. Voici les facultés qui ont reçu des fonds l’an dernier :    

Université Dalhousie 

Université McGill 

Faculté de médecine du Nord de l’Ontario 

Université de l’Alberta

Université de la Colombie-Britannique

Université de Calgary

Université du Manitoba

Université de la Saskatchewan

Université de Toronto

Université Western Ontario - Schulich
