CO-EDITORS
The November 2024 edition of Healthcare Management Forum (HMF) is a joint project between Don Juzwishin, PhD, FCCHL, Editor-in-Chief of HMF and Dan Breznitz, PhD, a Professor at the University of Toronto who holds the Munk Chair of Innovation Studies. Dan’s book, Innovation in Real Places: Strategies for Prosperity in an Unforgiving World, inspired some of the thinking around innovation in this edition and, as Co-Director and Fellow of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR) program on Innovation, Equity and the Future of Prosperity, Dan helped to mobilize some of the authors.
PODCAST
Listen to the podcast with Don Juzwishin, PhD, FCCHL, and Dan Breznitz, PhD, as they provide more detail on CIFAR’s program on Innovation, Equity and the Future of Prosperity, and talk with author Jane Gingrich, PhD, about her work in the United Kingdom related to innovation strategies and how they shape citizens’ public health behaviours. In an era of rising nationalism, public authorities face the temptation to lean into national sentiment to encourage citizens to engage with public health policies – from taking vaccines to promoting healthy lifestyles. Her research suggests that public health authorities should be cautious with nationalist framing, as it may be ineffective or counterproductive. Jane Gingrich, PhD, is a Professor of comparative social policy at the University of Oxford in the Department of Social Policy and Intervention. She works on welfare reform, education, and voting behaviour, and is currently completing a book on changes in social democratic parties. LISTEN HERE
BLOG
Read the blog entry by Rick Glazier, MD, MPH, FCFP, as he expands on his work related to what is really needed to provide high quality, well-organized primary care for everyone in Canada. Without an explicit policy goal of primary care for all, most likely on a geographic basis, Canada will continue to underinvest and underperform in primary care with ramifications that include rapidly escalating costs, emergency department and hospital overcrowding, and a growing and inequitable burden of preventable suffering. Dr. Rick Glazier is a senior core scientist at the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences and Scientific Director of the Institute of Health Services and Policy Research at the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. He is also a staff family physician at St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto. READ HERE
