Co-hosted by the Rural Coordination Centre of BC, First Nations Health Authority, and Health Quality BC, the Rural Voices Gathering is an opportunity to contribute to province-wide conversations and build connections that will shape the future of health and wellness in rural BC. Community members, healthcare providers, health administrators, policymakers, academics, local businesses and organizations are all encouraged to take part and bring their perspective.
The Rural Voices Gathering will be held virtually via Zoom on November 20 and 27th, with local, in-person community discussion groups to meet between the virtual dates.
Registration is free and open to anyone living, working or providing services to a rural, remote, First Nations or Métis community in British Columbia.
RCCbc is also looking for individuals interested in facilitating the in-person community discussions and/or the virtual, province-wide sessions. Facilitation training will be provided ahead of the gatherings, with funding available to cover travel and expenses to attend a half-day training session in Vancouver.
