Welcome Aman Kahlon! Our New WHRI Executive Assistant – Women's Health Research Institute

It with great pleasure, I would like to let you all know that Aman Kahlon is the new Executive Assistant for the WHRI! Aman is well known to all of you as she was previously the Administrative Assistant with WHRI for the past 2 years. I have been extremely impressed by Aman’s efficiency, her skills at problem-solving, her enthusiasm, warmth, and dedication to the team. She has also been shouldering some of the extra workload with regards to financial management that I am grateful for. Importantly, Aman is also a baker!

Welcome Aman! We look forward to doing great things for women’s health research with you on the team!

Sincerely,

Dr. Lori Brotto

WHRI Executive Director

The Women’s Health Research Institute would like to acknowledge that we are uninvited guests on the unceded ancestral territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lo, and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-waututh) Nations.

As a provincial research institute committed to improving the health outcomes of women, including those across the 2SLGBTQIA+ spectrum, we recognize our responsibility in the collective effort towards establishing culturally safe health care systems and services that address health inequities among Indigenous peoples, especially Indigenous women, girls, and Two-spirit peoples.

We encourage all people involved in research to read both the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action and the In Plain Sight Report, and reflect on ways we can incorporate the recommendations into our work. As we gather in spaces together, we encourage you to reflect on your positionality on these lands and your personal commitments to reconciliation.
