Code Blue Planet: Climate Change, Health & Indigenous Medicine
The future of medicine isn’t just about new tech; it’s about remembering our connection to the land. Climate change is already reshaping healthcare, from rising temperatures to disrupted ecosystems. To face these challenges, we need to look at the intersection of climate science, modern healthcare, and Indigenous medicine.
Join Dr. Interested for a high-energy day at Code Blue Planet. We’re bringing together high school and university students with Indigenous Elders, Knowledge Holders, and health experts to explore how we can build a climate-resilient future. This isn't just a lecture; it’s an interactive dive into traditional healing, nature-based wellness, and emerging career pathways.

Where: Humber Polytechnic at 59 Hayden St, Unit 400, Toronto, ON M4Y 0E7
