This curriculum was co-created with subject matter experts from across disciplines (e.g., addiction medicine, family medicine, pediatrics and obstetrics, anesthesiology), drawn from across the country and partnered with patient subject matter experts and family caregivers. 

All of these resources can be accessed at http://opioids.afmc.ca/

“The Culture of Academic Medicine Initiative (CAMi) encourages Canadian academic medicine institutions to adopt and implement best practices and initiatives that foster respectful, inclusive, and health-promoting environments for the well-being of all.

This initiative also seeks to empower individuals in academic medicine to collectively strive towards embedding equity, compassion, respect, safe spaces, and self-care into the fabric of our communities.”

The initiative adopts the Okanagan Charter:

“An International Charter for Health Promoting Universities and Colleges, which calls on post-secondary institutions to embed health into all aspects of campus culture, lead health promotion action, and collaboration locally and globally.”
