Curriculum Networks

In addition to mentoring trainees, the Program’s key faculty also work with teachers of health law across the country, whether in or outside of law faculties, by sharing best practices in training and mentorship, and by sharing materials. Through the CNM, the Program includes not only the trainees based at relatively large centres of excellence in health law but also a broad network of researchers and teachers from outside of law schools and from smaller institutions across the country who would otherwise have very limited support for curriculum development and reform. The CNMs examine critical issues such as the difference between health law in Quebec and the rest of Canada, and tackle pedagogical challenges, including the difficulties inherent in teaching interdisciplinary courses such as Law and Nanotechnology, variations of curriculum design, and pedagogical approaches to teaching health law when taught by faculty who are not lawyers in the faculties of medicine, nursing, pharmacy, health administration and others. In the absence of these CIHR-supported CNMs, there is no forum for exchange among Canadian health law teachers.

All Curriculum Network meetings are invitational workshops with presentations on current practices and significant amounts of time for discussion and sharing of ideas about how to advance health law and policy teaching in Canada.
