Dear Colleagues,
As part of our commitment and continued work to build a responsive community, I would like to invite you to consider completing the Black Health Equity Primer, coordinated through Rady Office of Anti-Racism. Thank you for those who have already completed the training.
There are limited seats released each year, it is a costly training and Rady is covering this cost currently.
Please put your name forward to Dayo Akinola Dayo.Akinola@umanitoba.camailto:Dayo.Akinola@umanitoba.ca for the 2026-27 offering.
It will be first come first serve (I am unsure how many seats will be allocated but will put forward names as they come in until they tell me no), and we will continue to ask for seats each year.
Many thanks.

I live and work on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate and Dene, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. I respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, I acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past, and I dedicate myself to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of Reconciliation and collaboration.
