Popis: On September 30th, 2017, medical students from the University of Ottawa organized and attended the 6th annual Action Global Health Network Conference (AGHN), in collaboration with the Faculty of Medicine. This full-day event aimed to challenge perceptions about global health and development, and encouraged participants to explore global health and social medicine as an avenue to improve equity. This conference proceeding recounts the key components of the 6th annual AGHN Conference, including keynote speakers, workshop speakers, and the research symposium. Core themes, learning takeaways, and future planning are also discussed in hopes of inspiring similar student-led initiatives across campuses.
