About Us
We are a team of pharmacists, educators, researchers, and students affiliated with UBC’s Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences. Together, we strive to advance and advocate for sexual and gender equity through pharmacy education, practice, and research.
We are based in Vancouver, British Columbia, on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We acknowledge the many lands and territories where we teach, study, and practice.
Vision
