Welcome to Convergence2023!

Thank you to everyone who attended Convergence2023. Please check back for information about Convergence 2024!

Welcome to Convergence2023, The Michener Institute of Education at UHN’s Annual Education Conference!  The convergence of care, research and education allows us to create new knowledge and skills that benefit our patients, families, clinicians and learners.

As we learn to navigate the world following the global pandemic, we also understand the importance of taking stock by revisiting the challenges we have faced, connecting with colleagues and looking forward to creating spaces for dialogue and inclusion. With this ethos in mind, we are proud to present this year’s theme:

Reflect, Reconnect, Renew

  •  Reflecting critically on our past, present, and future
  • Reconnecting with ourselves and others
  • Renewing our passion for work and commitment to equity

Convergence is an opportunity for our partners in health care to come together in a shared space to explore teaching and learning! This conference is intended for:

  • Educators
  • Curriculum Specialists
  • Health Care Providers
  • Researchers
  • Leaders/Administrators
  • Learners
