SUMMARY:Antimicrobial Resistance Across Canada: Youth Leading Change in Policy and Practice
DESCRIPTION:Join SCWIST\, CanAMR Net\, and EPIC on November 17 during National AMR Week for a special event hosted by Ridhima Aurora\, a SCWIST Quantum Leaps Grade 11 student from Calgary\, Alberta. \nRidhima will lead a thought-provoking discussion with two of Canada’s leading scientists — Dr. Natasha Christie-Holmes and Dr. Robert Andrew Kozak — exploring the urgent issue of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the importance of coordinated national action. \nThis youth-led event will highlight Ridhima’s analysis\, “Mapping Canada’s AMR Policy Landscape: A Cross-Jurisdictional Review of the 13 Provinces and Territories\,” which examines policy strengths\, gaps\, and opportunities for collaboration across the country. \nTogether\, the speakers will unpack how science\, innovation\, and policy must work hand-in-hand to protect public health and build a future resilient to antimicrobial threats.

SUMMARY:Youth Perspectives on Science Policy
DESCRIPTION:Register Now! \nThis panel brings together youth and early-career voices to explore how Canada’s science\, technology\, and innovation ecosystem can better reflect the realities\, aspirations\, and lived experiences of the next generation. Grounded in key insights and learnings that emerged from the STEM Youth Summit & Expo 2026\, this panel will center youth perspectives and will examine how existing structures may miss or overlook diverse voices. The discussion will explore gaps between training and opportunity\, barriers to participation\, and the role of youth in shaping more inclusive and forward-looking policies. By bringing youth voices directly into the conversation\, this panel aims to reimagine a policy landscape where young people are key contributors to Canada’s innovation future. \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_i2wOzd6LQ5aPfvD3I9SEXw
