E-Learning Modules and Podcasts on Veterans Health

International Women's Day (March 8^th) is celebrated with a purpose to denounce the discrimination, inequality and violence experienced by women; a call to accelerate gender parity. Let's take some time today to reflect and search for ways to improve women's lives, while celebrating the progress made so far.

The Veterans Health eLearning Modules & Podcast series is a project jointly developed by the University of Ottawa’s Department of Family Medicine’s PMO team, Queen’s University, and the City of Ottawa’s Veterans Task Force. The team’s primary objective was to develop content that addresses socially accountable educational gaps.

The PMO is pleased to release 2 podcasts in this project’s series that bring attention to issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights, and violence and abuse against women.
