McMaster Health Forum | Our Partners

Over the years we’ve worked closely with a remarkably diverse array of individuals and organizations who share our interest in collaboratively addressing critical health-system challenges. We have worked in partnership with international agencies (e.g., the World Health Organization), government (e.g., Public Health Agency of Canada), professional organizations (e.g., Ontario Medical Association), and private foundations (e.g., Labarge Optimal Aging Initiative), and with support from funding agencies (e.g., Canadian Institutes of Health Research).

If you’re a health-system leader and want to discuss working with us to make an impact on a pressing health-system issue or to improve health systems more generally, contact us at forum@mcmaster.ca. Through Forum+, we can also support efforts focused on social systems.
