The Canadian Society for Circumpolar Health (CSCH) is a Canadian charitable organization dedicated to promoting research, knowledge exchange, and awareness related to health issues affecting circumpolar populations. Its mission centers on improving health outcomes for people living in Arctic and northern regions through partnership, networking, and fostering responsiveness to unique regional health challenges.
History and Purpose
CSCH was established to address the specialized health needs of circumpolar communities. It supports research initiatives, disseminates information, and raises awareness to boost health services and policies tailored to the circumpolar environment. The organization advocates for the empowerment of children, families, and communities through knowledge to achieve better health in these regions.
Activities
CSCH plays a prominent role in organizing and supporting the International Congress on Circumpolar Health (ICCH), a major triennial event that gathers researchers, practitioners, and policymakers focused on circumpolar health. The 18th ICCH is scheduled to take place in 2024 in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories.
The Society also offers membership opportunities that provide access to meetings, networking events, and discounted participation in the ICCH, along with contributions to CSCH's publications. It promotes Canadian health research activities across national and international circumpolar regions and encourages public support through donations.
Governance
The CSCH operates under bylaws last updated in 2012. These regulations define the organizational structure, member rights and obligations, and the responsibilities of executive officers, ensuring transparent and effective governance.
Affiliations
As an adhering body of the International Union for Circumpolar Health, CSCH collaborates with sister organizations worldwide that share a commitment to circumpolar health improvement. It also supports and partners with research initiatives like the Circumpolar Health Systems Innovation Team (CircHSIT), which aims to transform primary health care in remote northern communities through evidence-based innovations and culturally sensitive care models.
The Canadian Society for Circumpolar Health serves as a vital hub for advancing health research, knowledge exchange, and community empowerment among circumpolar peoples, fostering improved health outcomes in Arctic regions of Canada and beyond.
