Exlore Our Strategic Priorities
Our Strategic Streams
CH&E’s Strategic Plan is organized around four interconnected streams of work, supported by a strategic enabler focused on external partnerships and system alignment. Together, these priorities guide how we conduct research, educate learners, engage with society, and support our people.
Each stream includes clear focus areas and initiatives designed to strengthen impact, improve alignment with health system needs, and support a sustainable and inclusive departmental culture.
