Held on March 29, the forum brought together academics interested in Ghana with an opportunity to network and discuss research interests that may lead to Ghana-Canada research collaborations.
This forum was sponsored by York’s Dahdaleh Institute for Global Health Research (DIGHR), which has recently undertaken to serve as a “hub” for an emerging Ghana-Canada Research Partnership, under the auspices of the Canadian Coalition for Global Health Research (CCGHR) [www.ccghr.ca/].
A York team (Joseph Mensah, Chair, Department of Geography; Beryl Pilkington; and Julie Hard, Man ager, International Relations, Faculty of Health) will be visiting several universities in Ghana from April 14 – 30th. As participants in the Ghana-Canada Research Partnership, the team will relay information about York academics’ interest in, or current collaborations with existing and prospective partners in Ghana.
The DIGHR wishes our colleagues a wonderful trip in developing an institution-to-institution partnership between York U and the University of Health and Allied Sciences (UHAS) in Ho, Volta Region.[www.uhas.edu.gh/].
