[RFHS College of Community and Global Health, UM Rady Faculty of Health Sciences, Book launch: Journeys North, Journey's End by Dr. Kue Young]<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=C92AT4wzTE6KFJBEaWL3uPy…> Learn more about Dr. Kue Young's memoir and join us for an afternoon of conversation. Young is a former department head of community health sciences (1998-2001) and a leading figure in Indigenous health research in Manitoba, across Canada and internationally. Working with UM colleagues, he and other researchers were among the first in Canada to recognize the emerging epidemic of Type 2 diabetes among First Nations communities. About Journeys North, Journey's End Kue Young came to Canada from Hong Kong to study medicine at McGill University, Montreal. He devoted his subsequent years working with Northern and Indigenous communities of Canada and other circumpolar regions. He also worked in Tanzania training rural health workers. This memoir traces his complex journeys and provides the context to his rather unusual and winding career path. Partly political and historical, and partly a primer on Northern, Indigenous, and Global Health, as well as deeply personal, his story is an inspiration for Canadians to look beyond their own communities, learn about and from other peoples and cultures, and seek opportunities to make the world a better place. This book should be of particular interest to students and practitioners who work in, care for, or are curious about Canada's North and its Indigenous peoples. - Mawenzi House Publishers<https://www.mawenzihouse.com/product/journeys-north-journeys-end/> Join us for light reception.
