For four days from Thursday, September 7th to Sunday, September 10, 19 leaders from across healthcare, government and food sectors convened together on Wasan Island in order to explore the role of food in healthcare in Canada.
Yesterday, participants from the health and community sectors came together to taste firsthand the possibilities for traditional Indigenous foods in health care institutions such as hospitals and long-term care centers. Working under the guidance of four different leaders, each team of participants cooked a dish representing a different Indigenous community.
From June 7 - 10, 2022, the Nourish Anchor Cohort gathered for the first time in person in Montréal, Québec. Over a series of workshops, visits to a farm, hospital kitchen, and various community food initiatives, participants saw, learned from, and tasted what it’s like when health care and community comes together to strengthen food security.
