PHI Media

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated social and health disparities across many regions, highlighting the need for an intentional global response to ensure that resources are allocated in an equitable way. In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, Julia Anderson, CEO of CanWaCH, joins us to discuss:

  • Access to COVID-19 Tools (ACT) Accelerator and the COVID-19 Vaccines Global Access (COVAX) pillar; 
  • Global health landscape for vaccine research, development, manufacturing, procurement, and distribution; 
  • Intellectual Property (IP) as a barrier to global vaccine equity; and
  • COVID-19's overall impact on Canadian foreign policy.
