| Title | Fostering Health Promoting Learning Environments (Hple): Initial Steps in Implementing the Okanagan Charter |
| Rationale/Background | To adequately address systemic wellness challenges, medical education should adopt the health promoting education framework during program design. Health promoting education settings "create conditions that are conducive to health through policies, services, and physical/social conditions". Applied to universities, the international community has developed the Okanagan Charter on Health Promoting Universities and Colleges. Health promoting learning environments(HPLE) are defined as "infusing health principles into all aspects of their operations, practices, mandates and business". The first call to action highlights the importance of embedding health into all aspects of campus culture, across the administration, operations and academic mandates. To develop a health promoting medical school, strategic objectives include: embedding health in all policies; implementing supportive environments; creating thriving communities and a culture of wellbeing; supporting personal development; and developing/re-orienting faculty health services. These strategic priorities form the basis for a comprehensive, multi-pronged approach to addressing faculty wellbeing. |
