Join BC Healthy Communities on November 20 for a live province-wide event featuring thought leaders and innovators in conversation about the planning and policy approaches communities can use to ensure healthy communities for all.
The evening will be led by a panel of experts sharing strategies around ensuring equitable access to opportunities for physical activity, and methods that can help develop stronger evidence-based policies for improving health in our communities.
