This talk draws on insights from socia l science to explore how policy choices\, institutional cultures\, and str uctural inequities have shaped the system we have today. It makes the case for increasing investments toward prevention and community-based care — i ncluding social prescribing\, community health workers\, and integrated so cial supports — as part of a broader vision for equitable\, effective prim ary care. Drawing on examples from Canada and globally\, it offers a fresh \, interdisciplinary perspective on how we got here and what it will take to move forward.\n\nThe presentation will be in English but comments and q uestions in French are most welcome.\n\nPresentation title: Fixing Primary Care in Canada: A Social Science Perspective\n\nSpeaker: Alayne Adams\, P hD\, is an Associate Professor and Global Health Director in the Departmen t of Family Medicine.\n\nDate: Tuesday April 21\, 7 pm.\n\nWhere: 5858\, C ôte-des-Neiges Road\, 3rd floor (Room 307).
