The University of Northern BC is hosting the National Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health’s (NCCIH) 20 year celebration.
The event is also introducing the Centre’s new Academic Lead, physician and educator Dr. Terri Aldred.
Dr. Aldred will guide the Centre’s work, which is a federally funded organization supporting First Nation, Inuit, and MĂ©tis public health and health equity through knowledge translation and exchange.
She said “I am honoured to advance and celebrate First Nations, Inuit, and MĂ©tis people’s wellness, from coast to coast to coast and from our hub on Dakelh Territory at UNBC.”
“The future is bright, and I am excited to be part of the NCCIH’s strong purpose and vision.”
Dr. Aldred began her new position yesterday (Tuesday), with the 20th anniversary celebration today, from 1:15pm to 5:30pm at Northern Health Sciences Centre, UNBC Prince George Campus.
