About the Conference
CHIP envisions a future where transformative education is accessible to all health science students, which empowers students to become agents of change in the healthcare system. This conference embodies our vision; CHIP was built by engaged students who acknowledged health and social inequity issues and were eager to come together to address them.
At CHIP, we see the powerful ways in which student leadership can help make impactful changes. Our conference theme this year, “Leading Social Change: Understanding Your Role in Transformative Healthcare,” pushes students to explore and advocate for health equity. This fall, civic engagement is on all our minds, and there is no shortage of ways to participate in social change. At this conference, we aim to equip one another with skills and knowledge necessary to be leaders in transformative healthcare - bringing about improvements in delivery, outcomes, and accessibility. We pose the following questions to explore: What role do you play in systemic change? Where can you make an impact? All health professional students are encouraged to join us as we continue our collective efforts to provide emerging leaders a platform to become agents of change in the healthcare system
The conference will host a keynote speaker, student-led breakout sessions, and a social hour to foster connection among health professional students.
