Karima Kanani led a session on collaborative governance for the newly formed public health subcommittee of the Hamilton Board of Health. A recent article from the Hamilton Spectator discusses her comments on public health reform and the role of the new committee in shaping decisions to better serve the city’s diverse population:
“This is not just about supporting decision-making related to public health, but it’s about advancing equity, diversity and inclusion,” said Karima Kanani, a partner at law firm Miller Thomson, who provided governance education to the subcommittee. “There has been a conscious decision to restructure and evolve the way public health is governed in Hamilton.”
