  • Vickie's Vantage
    LAURENTIAN UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI & FRIENDS SUMMER 2009 vickie’s VANTAGE Recession impressions from the class of CEOs There’s something about Barrie DRIVING CREATIVITY, INNOVATION, AND PROSPERITY To say that I am appreciative of the contributions and generosity of Laurentian University’s donors is an understatement. The financial assistance I have received throughout my time as a student at Laurentian has been invaluable. It has given me not only financial stability, but has allowed me to focus on my academic studies, which are my greatest passion in life. Acting as the student spokesperson at the Next 50 Campaign internal launch event in January wasn’t just a chance to get a little air time or to hear myself speak aloud (which, if you ask my teachers, is what I like best). Instead, it was a chance for me to thank the many caring people who are directly responsible for the success of numerous students through their generous contributions to scholarships and bursaries. Speaking at the Next 50 Campaign event in January also allowed me to urge the Laurentian community to become involved by continuing to support the internal campaign. It didn’t take long to see results. Success stories and the involvement of faculty and staff were evident everywhere on campus. The faculty in my very own department began contributing to the campaign by creat- ing a travel grant for future students. When the final tally for the 2008/2009 in- ternal component of the Next 50 Campaign was announced at the beginning of April, I was truly impressed, as were many oth- ers.

  • Founding Member of Médecins Sans Frontières Canada Wins the Royal College’S Prestigious Humanitarian Award
    (+ video) Founding member of Médecins Sans Frontières Canada wins the Royal College’s prestigious humanitarian award March 30, 2016, OTTAWA — From characterizing the symptoms of HIV/AIDS in children, to enabling the delivery of affordable medicines, the humanitarian career of James Orbinski, OC, OOnt, MD, MCFP, has made the world a better place for millions of people. Due to the far-reaching impacts of his work, he has won one of Canada’s most prestigious medical awards: the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada’s Teasdale-Corti Humanitarian Award. Watch our short tribute video here: https://youtu.be/8RkjifpJVPs Today, Dr. Orbinski works in Waterloo, Ont., where he is CIGI Chair in Global Health Governance at the Balsillie School of International Affairs, and a professor at Wilfrid Laurier University. He is also a professor at the University of Toronto’s Dalla Lana School of Public Health. However, in the late eighties, he was one of few doctors working on the ground in Africa to characterize the signs and symptoms of HIV/AIDS in children. It was a time when very little was known. “Mothers would line up in the hundreds outside the hospital and many had walked for two or three days to get there, bringing their children to be seen and cared for,” said Dr. Orbinski. “The scale and scope of their need really struck me and I realized that a traditional approach was not going to work.” He responded by developing treatment algorithms for very common problems — fever, diarrhea, cough — in HIV-positive children. He taught these to local health care providers so that when he left the region, the children could still find relief.

  • Global One Health Network
    Global One Health Network Annual Report 1 September, 2019 to 31 August, 2020 1 www.global1hnca Message from the Co-Leads We are pleased to present in the Report the work that began with the launching of our One Health Network for the Global Governance of Infectious Diseases and Antimicrobial Resistance (Global 1HN) in September 2019. The Network brings researchers and knowledge users from the social sciences together with those from the human, animal, and environmental health sciences to develop a transdisciplinary One Health approach to infectious diseases (IDs) and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) governance at global, national, and local levels. This inception year of the Network was an exciting one. Our early months were spent establishing our Network administrative functions, our website (global1hn.ca), and detailed plans for each of our Working Groups and Research Enabling Platforms. In early March 2020, we held the firstAnnual General Meeting in Ottawa, which was attended by 35 Network members. Members gained a better understanding of how the Network is structured (see our organizational chart at the end of this report), shared the work that was beginning under each of the Network’s four Research Enabling Platforms, and exchanged ideas on how to collaborate. Less than two weeks after our meeting, with our members having traveled safely back to their domestic and international homes, the reality of COVID-19 began to impact all our lives. The pace of the Network’s activities slowed somewhat as we all figured out how to work together remotely. From an oddly positive perspective, the pandemic provided our Network an incredible real-time case study of the global and domestic One Health governance of an emerging infectious disease originating from bats and believed to be first 2 www.global1hnca transmitted to humans in live animal markets.

  • 1 Defeating COVID-19 Calls for Global Solidarity, Not a Vaccine Power Play
    Canadian Coalition for Global Health Research (CCGHR) & Canadian Society for International Health (CSIH) Joint Statement Defeating COVID-19 calls for global solidarity, not a vaccine power play Joint CCGHR-CSIH Statement and Call to Action 11 September 2020 A COVID-19 vaccine is widely seen as the best way to end the acute phase of the global pandemic. The SARS-CoV-2 virus spreads easily from person to person and across borders: no country is safe from the virus until everyone is protected. Canadian leaders in global health call upon Canada to work in global solidarity with World Health Organization (WHO) and partners to end the COVID-19 crisis by supporting the global COVAX facility and adopting coherent policies to halt vaccine nationalism. Access to effective vaccines will be particularly important for developing countries, especially low- income developing countries, who entered the COVID-19 crisis from a position of evident disadvantage and find themselves severely affected on multiple fronts. The United Nations views the global COVID-19 pandemic as far more than a health crisis, with extreme social and economic impacts that deepen inequities, compromise under-resourced health systems, interrupt access to education, and reverse progress on global poverty inequities (1). The World Bank expects that these effects will be most devastating for the poorest countries and people (2). The COVID-19 Vaccine Global Access Facility (COVAX Facility) is a global initiative to provide equitable access to safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines for countries worldwide. Co-led by the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, and the WHO, the COVAX facility is a partnership with governments and developed and developing country vaccine manufacturers to accelerate development and manufacturing of COVID-19 vaccines while ensuring high ethical standards and fair and equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines for all countries, once they are licensed and approved.
