Moving Upstream: Advancing the science of structural determinants of health

This conference is hosted by Upstream Lab in collaboration with partners including Canadian Institutes of Health Research – Institute of Population and Public Health (CIHR-IPPH). It comes at a critical moment as we seek to deepen our understanding of the structural determinants of health, identify key knowledge gaps, and chart a path forward for research, policy, and practice. The event will convene academics, research funders, policymakers, health system leaders, and trainees who are committed to advancing work in this area. The conference day will conclude with a reception marking the 10-year anniversary of the Upstream Lab and celebrating its contributions to advancing upstream approaches to health equity.
